Summary

Matthew Coller is joined by ESPN's Courtney Cronin to talk about Kirk Cousins's return from the COVID list and his wild press conference which opened up with Cousins talking about room sizes and then went in a bunch of surprising directions, none of which included an explanation for why he isn't taking the vaccination that would allow him to not have NFL protocols.

Plus the offensive line sort of gets Christian Darrisaw back. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
