Kirk Cousins’ reaction to Falcons’ Michael Penix draft shocker revealed in Netflix’s ‘Quarterback’ trailer
NY Post
Kirk Cousins likely didn’t expect his first season with the Falcons to take the turn it did, otherwise he may not have accepted a spot in Netflix’s “Quarterback” show.
The show released its trailer Monday morning for the second season, where the Omaha Productions/NFL Films/2PM Productions docuseries follows quarterbacks Cousins, Jared Goff and Joe Burrow during this past NFL season.
Included in the trailer was the moment Cousins, who was fresh off signing a four-year, $180-million deal with Atlanta, saw the team select fellow quarterback Michael Penix Jr. in the draft.
The show’s typical positive manner took a turn when the trailer revealed a title card that read, “All the Heartbreak,” and cut to Cousins detailing his decision to leave the Vikings for a more long-term situation with the Falcons.
It quickly cut to Cousins’ in-season benching and the visuals of Atlanta drafting Penix with the No. 7 pick.
“I was surprised when the NFL draft happened,” a disappointed Cousins is heard saying in the trailer.
