Welcome to the death of hope.  My one dim light is that the Vikings draft a QB in '23, train him for a year under Kirk, then shove Cousins overboard.  Oh, and draft an RB either this year or nest and have Dalvin walk the plank in '23 because his cap hit is going to be ridiculous then. 

And now we've got $6.25 mil cap hits already on the books for '24 and '25 even if Cousins is gone.  Yippee.

Yea and his dead cap hit for 2023 is now almost 50 million!

Manageable hit for both years. And dead money in '24 ain't bad either. Hit went from 1st to 6th in '22 and 7th in '23. Vikings can now hopefully re-do Hunter, pull even more money out, and sign some defensive help.

This works. It's smart. Money to spend elsewhere. I didn't think they were going to move on from him yet. We'll see how this works out.
