Kirk Cousins News
Wednesday, March 11, 12:15 PM
The Atlanta Falcons officially released veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins at the start of the new league year on Wednesday, according to Kevin Seifert of ESPN. The 37-year-old four-time Pro Bowler spent the last two seasons in Atlanta, where he threw for 5,229 yards, 28 touchdowns, and 21 interceptions in 24 games (22 starts). He was benched late in the 2024 campaign in favor of rookie Michael Penix Jr. and entered last season as the clear backup. Cousins ended up starting eight games for the Falcons in 2025 due to Penix's season-ending knee injury. He had a few notable performances, but overall, he looked more like a QB nearing the end of his career. Cousins had 1,721 passing yards, 10 touchdowns, and five picks for the Falcons last year. He'll be an option to reunite with the Minnesota Vikings this offseason, but a starting job isn't going to be guaranteed, no matter where Cousins resurfaces for the 2026 campaign.

Josh Allen News
Wednesday, March 11, 6:58 AM
The Buffalo Bills have restructured quarterback Josh Allen's contract to create $12 million in 2026 cap space, per ESPN's Field Yates. It's not entirely clear what Buffalo is looking to do with the cap flexibility, but the team now has a little more wiggle room as it looks to build out a Super Bowl-caliber roster. Buffalo has a few notable pieces of their 2025 roster, such as edge rusher Joey Bosa and linebacker Matt Milano, who are currently lingering in free agency. The team could simply be looking to bring players back into the fold, or could be angling for a sizable addition. As far as Allen is concerned, the 29-year-old signal caller remains under contract with Buffalo through the end of the current decade. His long-term contract structure with the Bills affords the team the flexibility to make these types of moves.
