An unnamed former NFL quarterback has urged the Minnesota Vikings to secretly explore a trade for Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Kirk Cousins, advocating for his return to Minnesota to replace current starter Kyler Murray.

The suggestion comes as the Vikings evaluate their quarterback situation, with Murray under center and Cousins, who previously played for Minnesota from 2018 to 2023, now with the Raiders.
