Vikings get QB Kirk Cousins from Raiders for 3rd-rounder to lift struggling
offense, AP source says

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) --- The Minnesota Vikings reacquired quarterback Kirk Cousins
to try to revive their sputtering offense, beating the NFL trade deadline on
Tuesday with an agreement to send their 2027 third-round draft pick to the Las
Vegas Raiders, according to a person with knowledge of the deal.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the
trade had not yet been announced by either club.
While an opening was created with the Raiders for rookie Fernando Mendoza, the
first overall pick in the draft this year, a major move was also made by the
Vikings to try to keep their season on track with a dominant defense and plenty
of capable pieces on offense around the quarterback.
