As a few have stated.....Kirk ended up being a “me first” player. All that drama around him and his need to be “recognized”. F him. Like the 24m isn’t recognition enough.
I feel like we went from a teenager as our QB to a man. I’m loving it.
It's been a really bizarre situation when you look at from start to finish this offseason. Kirk can't seemingly get over the Redskins and had that moronic piece in Bleacher Report about only ever being seen as a 4th round pick and not being respected and not having a platform to lead and blah blah blah. He's taken his social media game to a whole new level of self-indulgence and pretentiousness. Before that, not one player in the Redskins organization tweeted out anything in support of Kirk when it was announced he signed in Minnesota. Not a single one, and you contrast that with the outcry of support Alex Smith got from his teammates and it was an interesting thing to discuss but maybe not indicative of anything. Now, you have the defense actively talking shit about Kirk on the practice field on what seems like a daily basis and offensive teammates raving about Smith, which I know is natural, but also taking slight jabs at Kirk too. Who knows how it plays out on the field but it certainly seems to be a situation of, "don't let the door hit ya on the way out" when it comes to Cousins.
