Washington's Kirk Cousins likely going to land with 49ers
Washington franchise-tagged quarterback Kirk Cousins will "more likely than not" end up as the San Francisco 49ers' quarterback, according to Mike Silver of NFL Network.
What It Means:
Silver believes Cousins "wants to be in San Francisco," and that the expected union "wants to happen on both ends." It's possible it doesn't happen until 2018, but Cousins joining the 49ers seems like an inevitability. New head coach Kyle Shanahan covets his former quarterback and Washington has done everything they can to push Cousins away from a long-term deal.
Cousins earned the sixth-most Passing Net Expected Points (NEP) per drop back among the 39 quarterbacks to drop back at least 100 times in 2016. He figures to provide a significant boost for a 49ers team that finished 28th in Adjusted Passing NEP per play on the year.
