Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins has a 2022 season full of ups and downs. There were extremely high highs to go along with a few disappointing moments in what was ultimately a regular season to remember for the purple and gold.
Though Cousins has never been interested in the limelight that comes along with being an NFL star, he is about to receive plenty of national attention. Interestingly enough, Cousins will be one of three quarterbacks featured in Netflix's new series titled Quarterback set to premiere on July 12.
Cousins will be featured alongside Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes and former Atlanta Falcons QB Marcus Mariota, who is now playing with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Here is how Netflix describes their upcoming series that should give NFL fans everything they want as they attempt to pass time in the dog days of the offseason.
From Netflix: Quarterback is a first-of-its kind partnership between the NFL and Netflix, offering unprecedented access to three of the league’s top players. The nine-episode series follows quarterbacks who, for the first time ever, are mic’d up for every single game, from the beginning of the 2022 season to its conclusion. And it’s not just life on the field, either: Quarterback takes fans from inside the huddle to inside players’ homes, showing how they navigate the pressures of their professional and personal lives.
This will give Vikings fans a look behind the scenes at what makes Cousins the person and player that the football world watches every Sunday.
Cousins' dad humor and humble personality might not seem like they fit the mold for a Netflix hit, but his league-leading eight comeback wins in 2022 are something Vikings fans wouldn't mind to relive.
At the end of the day, it's great to see Minnesota represented in such an exciting new series that will put the spotlight on their starting quarterback. Cousins catches a lot of unnecessary criticism across the league, so perhaps this might bring about a change in just how he is perceived.
