FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Washington Commanders Announce Kirk Cousins' Return: The Sequel You Didn't Know You Needed
ASHBURN, VA – In a plot twist that even Hollywood would envy, the Washington Commanders are thrilled to announce that quarterback Kirk Cousins is returning to the team. After a brief hiatus, Cousins is back to lead the Commanders into the 2025 season, bringing his experience, leadership, and a questionable number of khakis.
"We're excited to welcome Kirk back to Washington," said General Manager Adam Peters. "His leadership, experience, and familiarity with our organization make him a valuable addition to our quarterback room. Plus, he still has the same number of khakis, which is a bonus."
Head Coach Dan Quinn echoed Peters' sentiments. "Kirk's return adds depth and experience to our quarterback lineup. His familiarity with our system and his leadership qualities will be instrumental as we continue to build on our recent successes. Also, his dance moves are unparalleled."
Cousins began his NFL career with Washington, being drafted in the fourth round of the 2012 NFL Draft. Over six seasons, he became known for his resilience and competitiveness, notably leading the team to an NFC East title in 2015. After a successful stint with the Minnesota Vikings, Cousins signed a four-year, $180 million contract with the Atlanta Falcons in 2024. However, following a challenging season, including being benched in favor of rookie Michael Penix Jr., Cousins expressed a desire to start and explore other opportunities.
"I am grateful for the chance to return to Washington," said Cousins. "This city and organization hold a special place in my heart, and I look forward to contributing to the team's success. Also, I missed the fans who chant 'You like that!'"
The Commanders open their 2025 season at FedEx Field on September 13, facing the Dallas Cowboys in a highly anticipated matchup. Fans can expect a season filled with excitement, leadership, and possibly more khakis than ever before.
