The Falcons have had quarterback problems over the last few seasons, with Desmond Ridder and Taylor Heinicke sharing starting duties in 2023 for the 7-10 team.

Rather than running it back with one of them or trading for Bears quarterback Justin Fields, the Falcons are opting to pay a proven veteran starter.

Cousins has seven seasons of 4,000+ passing yards to his name. He has a 76-67-2 record as a starter with both Minnesota and Washington.
