Kirk Cousins officially signs $23.94 million franchise tender
Washington franchise-tagged quarterback Kirk Cousins signed his one-year, $23.94 million contract.
Cousins is now eligible to be traded, but that's no longer expected to happen. Look for him to play out another year under the tag before becoming a free agent next offseason. The San Francisco 49ers remain the favorite to land Cousins due to his relationship with new head coach Kyle Shanahan.
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.
