Kirk Cousins Joins CBS for Playoffs Amidst Uncertain Free Agency Future

Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins will join CBS's 'The NFL Today' for the next two weekends of the postseason, signaling a potential future in media. His NFL future remains uncertain as a recent contract tweak sets the stage for the Falcons to release him in March, making him a free agent. Cousins signed a four-year, $100 million guaranteed deal in 2024, was later benched, but started eight games in 2025 after Michael Penix Jr.'s injury, ending the year with a four-game winning streak.
