The Minnesota Vikings have struggled on offense this season, but help is finally on the way. After a rough game against the Buffalo Bills, the Vikings made a strong effort to trade for a quarterback before the deadline, and they were able to acquire a familiar face. Kirk Cousins will be returning to the team where he had the most success in his career, as the Las Vegas Raiders moved on from the veteran quarterback.
There's probably nobody happier about this trade than Justin Jefferson, who had the best season of his career when Cousins was throwing him the ball. In 2022, Jefferson had 1,809 receiving yards and eight touchdowns.
It might be too late to recreate those numbers, but there's still enough time for them to improve the Vikings' offense.
