FYI: Russell Wilson is in on a veteran minimum deal: one year costing Pittsburgh 1.21M, Denver is paying Wilson the majority of his salary this year 37M.
Cousins would get a similar deal with any team that he signs with, (if he doesn't retire) with Atlanta paying him next year.

Here's a more detailed breakdown;

If Kirk Cousins signs with another team next year, the Atlanta Falcons would have to pay him $27.5 million in base salary:

  • Trade
    If the Falcons trade Cousins, they would be responsible for $37.5 million in remaining proration, but his $27.5 million base salary would transfer to his new team.

  • Release
    If the Falcons release Cousins, they would still owe him $27.5 million in fully guaranteed cash.
The Falcons could also spread out the dead cap hit over two years if they release Cousins after June 1, 2025:

  • Release after June 1: The Falcons would owe Cousins $40 million in 2025 and $25 million in 2026.

Cousins also has a $10 million roster bonus for 2026 that would become fully guaranteed if he's on the roster on the fifth day of the 2025 league year.


Cousins' contract is considered "tradable" by some, and he could be a bargain option for next season. However, it might be difficult to find a trade partner after his 2024 season performance.
simply wait till he is released and save your resources . . good breakdown Sty

Sounds like the Jets are moving forward with Rex Ryan.
