Packers’ Rookie Sends Strong Message About Kirk Cousins

The Green Bay Packers are set for their second matchup against the NFC North rival Minnesota Vikings this season on Sunday. In Week 1, the Packers held a lead before allowing the Vikings to come back late and steal a win.Heading into this week’s game, Green Bay holds a 6-3 record. That has the team in last place when it comes to the NFC North division race. As for the Vikings, they currently stand at 6-2, which places them third in the division.At this point in the season, no game is a must-win situation. However, for the Packers, they badly need to even the season series against Minnesota for playoff positioning.Prior to the showdown between the two bitter rivals, the Vikings made a big-time move. They acquired veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins for a third-round pick from the Las Vegas Raiders. Cousins has been announced as the starter right away this week against Green Bay.With that being said, one rookie defender for the Packers doesn’t think anything has changed with the Minnesota quarterback change.Green Bay Packers defensive end Dani Dennis-Sutton (51) reacts during the fourth quarter against the Detroit Lions at Ford Field. Mandatory Credit: Lon Horwedel-Imagn ImagesGreen Bay Packers Rookie Dani Dennis-Sutton Gets Honest About Kirk CousinsWhen asked about how Cousins could change the Vikings’ offense, Dennis-Sutton said that he doesn’t think it changes much.“He’s a great quarterback, but I don’t think it’s gonna change too much,” he said. “They’re gonna stick to their offense, and try to get 18 the ball.”So far this season, Minnesota has struggled to get the football into Justin Jefferson’s hands. He has racked up 31 receptions for 393 yards and four touchdowns.Between Kyler Murray and Carson Wentz, the Vikings’ passing game simply hasn’t been good enough. That led to the trade to acquire Cousins. He has a previous stint of very successful football being played alongside of Jefferson.Whether or not the trade for Cousins ends up being the move the offense needed to right the ship remains to be seen. For the Packers, they aren’t too worried about any major changes coming with a new quarterback for Minnesota.Kickoff is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday afternoon. The game will be broadcast on Fox.More NFL NewsGiants’ John Harbaugh Issues Strong Statement After Commanders LossSteelers’ Aaron Rodgers Hit With Brutal Criticism Before Week 10Detroit Lions Named Potential Suitor for Blockbuster Offseason MoveCowboys’ Latest Joey Porter Jr. Prediction Would Be Nightmare ScenarioRams Named Potential Suitor for $108 Million Wide ReceiverThe post Packers’ Rookie Sends Strong Message About Kirk Cousins appeared first on Gridiron Heroics.
