Vikings Turn to Old Friend to Save the Offense, But Will it Work?

The Minnesota Vikings were the big story on NFL trade deadline day. Would they make a move to improve at quarterback? We had to wait but the news finally broke that the Vikings were turning to an old friend to save the offense after the disaster that we saw on Monday Night Football. Vikings Turn to Old Friend to Save the Offense All eyes were on first-year general manager Nolan Teasley as the Vikings hunt for a QB took center stage. Teasley delivered a reunion with Kirk Cousins at the expense of a third-round pick. It was probably the best move Minnesota could have made with this season s short-term needs in mind. At 38, Cousins isn t a long-term answer, but right now Teasley needed to focus on not wasting what the Vikings defense is doing.
