Why won’t Kirk Cousins wear number 8 with the Falcons?
The addition of Cousins to the team marks a significant shift in the Falcons’ trajectory and fulfills the long-awaited dreams of Atlanta’s supporters. Under Arthur Blank’s ownership, the Falcons have been striving to assemble a roster filled with star power, and with Cousins joining the team, that vision appears to be materializing. The quarterback’s arrival addresses the team’s need for stability and experience at the helm of the offense. This void has persisted since the departure of former star quarterback Matt Ryan.
The announcement of Cousins joining the Falcons has sparked fervent discussions among fans and analysts. While some express jubilation at the prospect of Cousins leading the charge, others scrutinize the hefty investment made by the franchise, considering Cousins’ age and recent injury History. Nevertheless, there is a prevailing optimism that Cousins’ proven track record and steady hand under center will take the Falcons’ performance to new heights.
The anticipation surrounding Cousins’ partnership with talented offensive weapons, including standout draft picks like Kyle Pitts, Drake London, and B.J. Robinson, has reached a fever pitch. With the guidance of offensive coordinator Zac Robinson, who brings a wealth of experience from his tenure with the Rams, and the continuity provided by head coach Raheem Morris, the stage is set for Cousins to thrive in Atlanta’s offensive system.
Without the 8
It has been confirmed that Kirk Cousins, the new quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons, will not be wearing his old Minnesota Vikings jersey number when he starts playing for the Falcons. Instead, Kyle Pitts will continue wearing the No.8 at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. There were rumors that Cousins might negotiate with tight end Pitts to take over the No.8 jersey, but it has been officially announced that Cousins will wear a new number in the 2024 NFL season.
Although some people still have doubts and skepticism, many believe Cousins is the missing piece of the Falcons’ puzzle. His ability to protect the Football and make crucial plays in essential moments is expected to drive the team’s success.
