No matter how good Kirk Cousins is playing or how good it current team is, he simply cannot win with the National media.
Following the Vikings’ thrilling win over the Commanders this past weekend, Kirk Cousins was seen partying shirtless on the plane ride home. One ESPN analyst did not like what he saw.
On the Keyshawn, JWill and Max ESPN radio show Wednesday, Max Kellerman disrespected the Vikings QB by not only listing him as the 16th best QB in the league, but he also slammed Cousins’ physique.
“You could at least be in shape. I look better than that and I’m 50 years old.”
Kellerman added that Cousins should “go lift some weights and said: “Cousins is not giving himself the best chance to be as good as he could be if that’s the kind of shape he’s in, period.”
“Hit the weights Kirk. This is a disgrace,” Kellerman said.

Despite what you think about Cousins, since he has taken over as a full-time starter in Washington in 2015, the veteran QB has only missed two games and neither were due to injury.
Clearly his, physique is not deterring him from being on the field and being hit by men who are in better shape than him. Just a few days ago, Cousins was on the Pat McAfee Show explaining why he isn’t more muscular.
“The college lifts are meant to make you look good at the beach and you better believe by my senior year I looked good at the beach,” Cousins said. “I really couldn’t move very well but I looked good at the beach. So, in the pros I’ve kind of backed off the heavy lifting and tried to dial it down a notch and work more on movement, flexibility, tissue work and stuff like that.”
Here’s how social media reacted to Cousins being body shamed by kellerman:
Kirk Cousins is playing his eleventh season and his fifth with the Vikings. He has started eight games and has recorded 1,999 yards, 13 touchdowns, and six interceptions.
The Vikings next matchup will be with the Buffalo Bills.
