Kirk has a great mindset. I admire him he seems like a genuinely humble man

[@samkersten9539]

It’s fake

[@MegaSteven011]

@@samkersten9539 why do you think so ?

Great man, certainly not a champion though

Bull.

Kirk is a STUD! He is the perfect example of a good human who believes in themselves. Also works hard af!

[@jakehadlock]

Kirk has been doubted his entire life and just keeps on believing in himself (and reaping the rewards). Way to go, Kirk!!

[@TJ_Gonser]

As a Vikings fan no. no he needs to be paid less the margins for error are so thin with him getting paid so much.

[@erikmendoza2819]

False Humility is a real thing. Don’t see that in Kirk Cousins. Genuinely communicates how he sees all perspectives and stewards an appropriate response.

[@dr3693]

why did you give penix glowing eyes like he’s evil lol

[@abikuneebus]

I don’t get why people are tripping about this. It’s a depiction of the public’s perception of how Kirk would be feeling. It’s not demonizing Penix, it’s not that serious-it’s a KZbin thumbnail.

[@adrian33161]

Making him the bad guy

[@johntruxal432]

Kirk's in the hof of contracts and right time right places...🍻

[@philgod420]

He's a product of Kurt Warner the way he conducts himself on and off the field. Be nice to see him win a ring.

[@truth459]

Naw Kurt was a real one Kirk is a playoff choker

[@wildbat9098]

Yea reminds me of eli

[@lukemanis9271]

That’s what loving the Lord does. Biggest class act in the nfl

[@Musso88]

He is for sure one of the true class acts in the league.

[@BillThe3rd]

I worked at a golf course in south east Georgia that was uber private and the co owner of the falcons would bring Matt Ryan 4 times while I was there but in 2021, this guy who used to own the Cincy Reds brought Kirk in a group and he was super chill and I took a pic for the group. I didn’t even realize it was him! The member had to be like “you know who the Vikings QB is?” and I was like “uh yea?” And he pointed and said “that’s him” and I looked over and Kirk was tying his shoes lol and I was like huh I guess that is him.

[@DuartesGarage]

“Once you get a Ryan Mallet you’re not even looking” College football is insane

[@crustycritters6148]

Rip

[@FinancialClout]

Ryan Mallet was a physical specimen and a 5 star… it made sense at the time

[@stevendoxx25]

Kirk is a good dude. I’m glad he’s with the Falcons

[@damorblake]

Kirk didn’t get anything easy and he’s very humble with everything he’s earned I wish he never left us in WSH but I’m always rooting for ole Kirk

[@Quis_804]

I was just warming up too Kirk than we went and got the only qb i liked in the draft

[@kpf7539]

THATS MY EFFIN QB MANE!!! Kirko is the man ATL LIKES THAT ❗️❗️❗️

[@GMCvideos2012]

Nick and Kirk and both God fearing Christian men, I am glad their paths crossed

[@oxlong253]

Kirk is a good guy and a good QB but Penix can be great. Not a bad problem to have in Atlanta

[@vitigaymer1053]

If Greenbay can draft a replacement for Favre or Rodgers - whilst they were still elite! Guys like Kirko likely aren't suprised when teams draft their eventual replacements.

[@jamesingledue8710]

There’s just some people that play on a higher level when they have the fear of losing something they want, I feel like Kirk and Russell Wilson will ball out

[@maxhedrick311]

0:41 “an owner would be like oh my goodness”😂throwing shade subconsciously is elite

[@MrMikeyoconnor]

This is awesome. A great example of a big picture guy who knows how things operate and where he can contribute.

[@foolio550]

I can see why people like Kirk once they get in the room with him.

[@codyzimmer9257]

Smart move by Atlanta. Bring in a veteran who can mentor a rookie stud quarterback. I like the move

[@tylerricker230]

I mean there’s no way he could be mad about it they have to build for the future and Kirk knows he’s getting up there so they gonna have to draft one eventually

[@jonstravels1085]

I’ve never seen a fan base switch up so quick. Kirk went from “good enough to win a sb” to a guy who will never get you over the hump lmao

[@scotteasey6580]

Klint Kubiak is the Saints oc?

[@ThePicOfDestiny]

boys, ankle socks are a meme now!

[@jonstravels1085]

Hawkeyes w Kirk might’ve changed cfb. Imagine giving them a qb does that change the tradition?

[@michag4337]

As a hawks fan, mcnutt in the corner to win as time expired against cousins is one of my greatest memories. Having said that, cousins is a dog, he deserves way more respect than he gets. I hope penix goes down as a bust pick, no hate to penix, just hoping cousins cooks for the next 4 years.

[@michag4337]

So as a hawks fan....we passed on Ryan and cousins...wtf a we doing?

[@HippyDaHer]

[@desmondpoole9646]

He said he has a few more years or 2 more years? Kirk may not play that whole contract

[@ianross806]

That's a better reaction than Aaron Rodgers.

[@truth459]

Kirk knows he doesn’t even believe what he says Peep how much he blinks while answering the question 😂

[@moparcrashdummy]

Penix jr can fn play but so can Captain Kirk he’s been the most likely qb to go for 400 passing for the past 5-8 years

[@agentorange1156]

Let go and let God kirko

[@bocamax]

With thumbnails like that, no NFL player is going to want to do an interview with you.

[@abikuneebus]

I don’t understand why people are taking this so seriously lmao. It’s a depiction of the public’s perception of how Kirk would be feeling. It’s not demonizing Penix, it’s not that serious-it’s a KZbin thumbnail.

[@hyprjay]

Penix isn't gonna like holding that clipboard. But get used to it buddy. Kirk's been ranked as the most consistent Fantasy QB for the past 5 seasons lmao dudes a 18+ pt monster average. Ans his 50pt games with 400yds and 4tds change entire lineups for the next week lmaoo

[@ilovechickenization]

The good thing for Michael Penix is being a consistent Fantasy QB producer doesn’t carry a lot of value to NFL coaches. Getting into and winning in the playoffs does and thats something Kirk isn’t really familiar with.

[@AustinTowle]

Seeing Kirk even talk about playing in a super bowl let alone him talking about winning one makes me laugh. In his 12-year career Kirk has gone 1-4 in the playoffs, he only JUST won a prime-time game with the Vikings, Kirk is 78-70-2 since playing in the NFL, he is now 35 years old coming off a season ending right Achillies tear Kirk is cooked and y'all will be asking for Penix to replace him sooner than later mark my words, when you see Kirk aka the human statue make the same mistakes in a collapsing pocket time and time again you will all be screaming for Penix

[@brendenbosquez4177]

Agreed. As a Vikings fan I’m just relieved for that era to be over. Even if we have to be shitty for a couple years, at least we have a promising future. I didn’t feel that way with Cousins. It felt like we were stuck with him

[@karenhardie1132]

Kirk fleeced the vikings. One playoff win. He's laughing all the way to the bank. 😂
