Kirk Cousins Not Seen at OTAs

Tuesday, May 27, 1:13 PM

Atlanta Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said he did not see quarterback Kirk Cousins at voluntary organized team activities on Tuesday. It shouldn't come as a surprise to many after the 36-year-old veteran signal-caller had a disastrous first year in Atlanta in 2024. He didn't play well coming off an Achilles tear the year prior and was eventually benched late in the year for rookie first-rounder Michael Penix Jr. Cousins will enter the 2025 campaign as Penix's backup, but he desperately would prefer to be traded to a team that will give him a chance to start again. Among the teams that could be willing to trade for him include the Browns, Steelers and Vikings, but the Falcons are going to need to facilitate a trade by eating a large portion of his $27.5 million guaranteed salary for 2025, which they so far have not been willing to do.

Geno Smith Says Raiders Looking to be "Explosive and Efficient"

Tuesday, May 20, 1:16 PM

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Geno Smith said he's ready to adjust to a new offense in 2025, something he's already done three times in the last three seasons. "I can adjust. And so, just an adjustment period, but the offense is really good. I'm looking forward to it. Won't give too many details, but we're looking to be explosive and efficient," Smith said. New offensive coordinator Chip Kelly's simplistic, fast-paced offenses have evolved in recent years, and he should give Smith the freedom to call audibles at the line of scrimmage. The 34-year-old Smith threw for a career-high 4,320 yards on 578 attempts in 2024, which ranked fourth-most in the league. He also had a career-high 15 interceptions. Smith was very accurate last year, but he won't have the volume in Vegas and doesn't have the kind of weapons through the air he had in Seattle. Still, Smith will be relevant in two-QB leagues in 2025.
