(Photo by Todd Kirkland/Getty Images) | Getty Images New Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Kirk Cousins will be remembered as a solid player whose career spanned two decades.
He, however, will also go down as one of the most successful players ever to life when it comes finances and contractual success.
After his unique deal with the Raiders, which combines money from the Atlanta Falcons (who released Cousins this offseason), his financial success is in the spotlight once a gain. Check out these details from a recent X post by ESPN’s Adam Schefter:
Cousins, who turns 38 in August, is a top-five paid player off all time and, my goodness, a 99 percent guaranteed career earning rate is insane.
Not bad for a fourth-round pick in 2012.
In other Raiders’ news:
- What if? What would happen if the Raiders put the No. 1 draft pick up for sale?
- He’s excited: Cousins talks up signing with the Silver and Black.
