Follow along with new Vikings QB Kirk Cousins as he arrived at the TCO Performance Center last week, met with coaches, and then signed his contract.

[@GibsonUSA87]

Kirk is a true professional. Being able to make small talk when meeting new co-workers is a major skill that goes unnoticed sometimes. Looks like the Vikings got themselves a good QB there!

[@famousamos]

He's a good guy.

[@mccoyboy_kev]

1:32 “I like that.” YOU LIKE THAT!!!

[@ryanheath9137]

Vikings Fans: Congratulations! You've got a GREAT QB in your hands! He's gonna do great things up in Minnesota, i already know it. Enjoy him! Sincerely ~ A Redskins fan.

[@timallen609]

Anthony Rufino not Cousins fault you had no defense in Washington. We call you the reskins as there is no D in Washington

[@anthonyrufino2505]

tim allen not a redskin fan dum fuck

[@dubstepphene82]

Ryan Heath This fellow Redskins fan agrees

[@Jseagle1989]

Y'all ain't making winning a SB with him... at.. all. Make it to the playoffs and lose, but not the SB.

[@logantcooper6]

Holy crap the Vikings facilities are top notch! Super bowl or bust!

[@rover7139]

Logan Cooper you need to take a look at the cowboys facilities bro..

[@DeRussellMasina]

I think that was already stated a few months ago.... perhaps BUST 🤔 #FlyEaglesFly

[@timallen609]

DeRussell Masina damn you Philly fans bored? Trolling like little kids. Hilarious kiddo nobody outside that shithole of Philly nobody cares ya know? Obviously you Philly fans are novices at winning. You won ,we are happy as a pig in shit for you but run along Skippy we talking about next year ok?

[@benbreeg6839]

With a tear in my eye I say goodbye to one of my favorite Redskins of all time. Kick ass Kirk. For 45 years I have bled burgundy and gold. I can't do it anymore. I am sorry our fan base and our management were too stupid to understand what we had in you. So regardless of the money or the facility, you need to take your talent, your class and your family to a place where you are respected and welcomed. I have never wanted to see any football player succeed more than I do you. Please Kirk, stick it to them..........

[@Charles_Groebs]

Ben Breeg He’s in good hands man.

[@notmelll2746]

The Washington football team 😂 thoughts on the new name?

[@jacashalot3441]

Yea I wonder if your happy now he's not Washington problem anymore

[@Henlarious]

40+ year Redskins fan here. Born and raised in DC. You guys are lucky. Cousins is an excellent QB. I’ve seen every one of his downs, he’s grown into a FRANCHISE caliber QB. All the haters just don’t know anything. They don’t watch the games, they just compare stats which is stupid. Cousins put up over 4000 yards a year (one year almost 5000), over 20-25 TDs, few INTs with a dysfunctional bad team. He had crap for RB, WR, OLINE, and Defense. Yet, no one talks about that. And he had a rookie head coach AND different offensive coordinators. Yet, no one talks about that. Through it all he passed for 4000 yards and 20-25 TDs with no run game and a defense that had more holes than Swiss cheese. Grats to MIN you guys will do well the next three years.

[@williamsmith3644]

Yes Kirk made the best of being in a generally underwhelming roster situation. HOWEVER, he has had some awesome offensive coordinators, has had really good weapons (Jackson, Garcon, and Reed) and decent offensive line. AND has enjoyed the benefits of being developed in the same system for a while. Obviously Kirk will do better at the Vikings but his situation with the skins really wasn't that bad.

[@hapaharley1706]

william smith every situation w/ the Skins has been bad for the last 20 years. We're a doomed organization

[@railfaner6777]

Henry C uhhhh cousins suxxxxxxx watch AntoDaBoss videos

[@andrewross7856]

Henry C agreed my family and I have been redskins fans since on the earth. I loved him he was my favorite player on the skins. I just got a jersey last year

[@cyrogex1218]

I feel bad for ya you guys got ALEX SMITH of all QBd

[@RedTideRTS]

Kirko has come so far! Got sad when I saw Adam Zimmer there.

[@johnnystek6900]

positive energy

[@sghostr4179]

And that Eagles fan would be me, Fuck Vikings!

[@ai3n10]

Who would’ve thought that Zimmer being in 10secs of this video would be such a HUGE indicator of what eventually developed. Visiting with every coach for decent amount and Zimmer only pops in for the photo shoot with a half ass “congratulations”

[@Jasonmullenixplays]

YOU LIKE THAT!!! I wanna hear Kirk say that when the Vikings win a Super Bowl!

[@dariushollimanjr8407]

If not when

[@eliaseverette6432]

[@christopherkerr3371]

[@longliverocknroll70]

Jesus. Locker room, offices, stadium, etc, unbelievably beautiful.

[@PresidentEgg]

Seeing Tony hurt so much. RIP man

[@Chad71174]

Man I hated to see Case go , but Kirk is looking like the one the purple needed . SKOL

[@DeeViiking]

Chad Halvorson man I was happy as fuck to see case go lol

[@strictlybusiness1679]

Riley that game against Carolina made me think twice as well. I hope this year will be like 09, but with a better defense. Seems like MN rarely gets an above average QB. Skol

[@strictlybusiness1679]

Bradley Uppercrust III teddy b and ponder got into the playoffs too. Remember, football is a team sport. Vikes have a better overall team with cousins and his new weapons like diggs, Thielen, and Rudolph. Besides no way were the vikes going to pay case big money. Worked out well for both parties, Sam and Teddy can now have a chance at starting qb for their new teams as well.

[@strictlybusiness1679]

Bradley Uppercrust III I agree they overpaid with that guaranteed contract, but there was no other way to get him. MN has the team to make it to the super bowl; therefore, they are not trying to develop a new qb or risk the season with a mediocre qb. A lot of players on offense and defense are young and talented and will most likely want to get paid big money next year, not sure if we can keep everyone happy. Jerick just left and that's a big loss. I just hope everyone stays healthy and we can get some more o lineman and good backups for depth.

Vikings, you just gained a new fan. Best of luck to your team as we all know you guys will go far.

[@samwallert9898]

I really appreciate showing us a bit of his tour, gives us an idea of where the team works. What it looks like, feels like.

[@hogsnation248]

I don’t know if I’m sad to see him leave or excited to see if Smith can take us farther than Kirk could, but regardless i am definitely happy for him. I loved his character & he’s a great guy to have on your roster.

[@jefftX]

Hogs Nation Redskins are going nowhere with anyone at QB

[@hogsnation248]

Lonnell Arrington 8+8+1=17. Your math teacher a bum for failing your ass

[@bowlchamps37]

Well, Smith has not won a playoff game for KC right. So I do not see much of an upgrade. Smith is like Tyrod. Good stats, taking care of football but ultimately, not getting a team over the hump.

[@DillonPatterson-co7be]

I don't care what anyone has to say about Kirk Cousins, he is a fucking gentleman. Notice how he already knows a little bit about everyone before hand and the things he doesn't know he generally wants to know? The man is a leader and a great quarterback. Looking forward to seeing him next season under new management with some new tools after the draft.

[@OscarNunezFilms]

It's fascinating to see how the coaches work and interact within the facility

[@leyroy1980]

We're going to miss you in Washington. Good luck Kirk I wish you the best.
