If the Vikings keep their cousins, they are predicted to lose a $67 million star to a rival.
Should the decide to extend Kirk Cousins this summer, it might mean that Pro Bowl edge rusher Danielle Hunter will be going.
The Vikings have placed their contract negotiations with Hunter “on hold” while they determine whether to re-sign Cousins or allow the seasoned quarterback to go in free agency, according to an ESPN story from February 10.
Hunter is probably going to go in free agency if the Vikings decide to extend Cousins, according to Bleacher Report’s David Kenyon. The Chicago Bears and Jacksonville Jaguars are both “very high” on Hunter, according to ESPN’s Dan Graziano.
An even worse scenario may occur if Hunter signs a $67 million contract with the NFC North champion Detroit Lions, who will let him harass the Vikings for the next three seasons.
