The Vikings plan to pursue a trade today for Kirk Cousins or Daniel Jones, per @RapSheet.

Minnesota now knows their QB position isn’t good enough to compete right now.

The Vikings are aggressively pursuing a trade for Kirk Cousins, per @AdamSchefter.

Minnesota and the Raiders are now in serious trade talks.

The Bengals backed out of their trade for Arnold Ebiketie, per @Schultz_Report.

Acquiring Ebiketie would’ve wiped out an incoming 3rd-round comp pick from Trey Hendrickson leaving last year.

A mess up by the Bengals’ front office not realizing this originally.

It’s rare to see a team make a major midseason quarterback addition via trade, but the Vikings are now boxed into doing so.

It would be a surprising development now if Kirk Cousins or Daniel Jones isn’t dealt to Minnesota today.

If the Raiders traded Kirk Cousins to the Vikings, he would only cost Minnesota $650k against the cap this season.

Minnesota can absorb Cousins’ salary without having to do any contract restructures, unlike Daniel Jones.

If Minnesota offers a 2027 2nd, Las Vegas would consider.
