The #Vikings have activated QBs Kirk Cousins and Nate Stanley from Reserve/COVID-19.

K Riley Patterson has passed his physical and has been removed from PUP.

Kirk Cousins says he's been doing a lot of research. When asked if he's made contact with Dr. Allen Sills, he says no

Stupid fucking shithead.

Probably the only time I'll agree with Judd. Just another reason to hate Kooky Cousins.

#Vikings QB Kirk Cousins:

“The quarterbacks have moved meeting rooms, so it shouldn’t happen again, as far as the reason I was not at practice.”

Kirk Cousins' news conference today should be a fascinating set piece of unaccountable deflection, self-righteous benevolence and tone-deaf word tornadoes. Or perhaps he'll rise to the occasion as a $96 million NFL quarterback and team leader. #Vikings
Exactly.  Is he going to keep this up all year?  Seriously?  
Yes of course he is...He really doesn't have much choice does he???

He's already fractured the fan base and Zimmer hasn't minced words with how as the HC feels about the stance non-vax players are taking.

His hope, fans hope and org hope is that this doesnt rear it's head at all during the season.

What's the odds of that though? This is just summer, wait till Fall and Winter - when we're all cooped up indoors in most of the country.

Cousins said he has thought about surrounding himself with plexiglass in the QB room. He was asked why he would go to such lengths when a vaccine would be far more effective and efficient. He said the decision is personal and private.

Great!

Is he going to play with Plexiglass too? 

The QB -Center exchange is going to look awkward

So the other players sweating and breathing on him during a game aren't going to affect him?

Quarterback Jesus gets a 6 ft no contact halo?

Kirk Cousins: I'm willing to do whatever it takes to avoid going back on the COVID list. I'll put a plastic bag over my head and seal it tightly on my neck if I have to.

Media: But then you'll suffocate. Why not just get the vaccine?

Cousins: That's a private, personal question.

"close contact, which is being within a certain number of feet. The challenge was, the meeting room we met in was deemed to be too small for us to have been in a room together – even if we were significantly apart from each other. So we’ve since moved to a different meeting room,

"and as I understand it, had we met in a larger room, I would not have missed practice. Because I was not a close contact as deemed by actually being in contact. So it was disappointing to miss practice. In my entire college and pro career, I have not missed four practices."

No, dip shit. That's no the reason, you fucking mental midget.

So if Kirk gets COVID, what's the message Jesus is sending
him?  Is it: "Kirk, you effing moron, why didn't you get the
vaccine?".  We're so lucky to have our highest paid player and
starting QB so close to missing games every week for reckless but easily
avoidable off the field decisions.  What
a DBag.

It is a personal decision, just like delaying a needed operation to the beginning of training camp when it could have been done months ago (Michael Thomas).  Or, to put a finer point to it, a QB wearing a flak jacket is a personal decision.  Yes, it is a personal decision, it is just dumb and selfish decision.

before the season started in 2020 that took place indoors. So the Vikings are either going to have to stay outside for practice later than they usually do this season or roll the dice if Cousins and others remain unvaccinated and hope they don't have issues practicing indoors.

I hear Minnesota is lovely in December.

Somewhere in there he mentions he'll even meet outside under a goal post... in January

Yes, lets just move everything around because this idiot can't figure out that getting vaccinated will render doing that moot.

I hate to agree with Judd on anything, but he's right. NO PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY for Kooky Cousins.

Best roster we've had in years, and he's going to fuck it up. 

Conduct detrimental to the team clause. Exercise it.

considering that 2 of their final 4 games are outdoors in the north... they should be practicing outside in December.
