Justin Jefferson Praises Kirk Cousins' Leadership

Thursday, November 12, 4:31 PM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson is excited to have quarterback Kirk Cousins back with the organization. On Thursday, Jefferson said that it's a joy to have Cousins' leadership in the locker room. It has been a down year for Jefferson, who is currently averaging a career-low 56.1 receiving yards per game. It hasn't been easy for him with Kyler Murray (hamstring), Carson Wentz, and Max Brosmer as his quarterbacks this season. He'll now be reunited with Cousins, who was under center in Minnesota for the first four years of Jefferson's career. Jefferson averaged nearly 100 yards per game when he had Cousins under center. The hope is that the two of them can quickly reignite their chemistry. Cousins is expected to be the starting quarterback for the Week 10 matchup against the Green Bay Packers.

49ers Address Brandon Aiyuk Repayment Dispute

Thursday, November 12, 6:45 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk is still in a dispute with the team over bonuses it paid him after his 2024 contract extension. General manager John Lynch told KNBR the 49ers are relying on the NFL's collective bargaining agreement to handle the matter, according to David Lombardi. Lynch declined to discuss the negotiations in detail. "Overall, it's kind of sad the way things went down," he said. The Associated Press reported that the league sent Aiyuk and the NFL Players Association a letter last week saying the team was owed about $13 million. Agent Drew Rosenhaus said Tuesday he would try to settle the repayment dispute separately from Aiyuk's playing status. The NFL reinstated Aiyuk from the reserve/left squad list Monday, and San Francisco's roster exemption for him expires Nov. 23. Aiyuk last played in October 2024, when he injured his knee. Rosenhaus said Aiyuk passed his physical with the 49ers last week and is running routes on his own. Rosenhaus said Aiyuk would work out for interested teams if San Francisco releases him.
