Kirk Cousins clearly isn’t thrilled with being hit with the franchise tag two years in a row.
But he said a recent conversation with owner Dan Snyder was not to demand a trade, but to get a sense of the direction of the franchise.
While that assumes there is one, Cousins said on Adam Schefter of ESPN’s podcast that he asked Snyder if he was going to be traded, but Snyder told him they wanted to keep him there. And that fell well short of the report he asked for a trade, which Cousins learned about while shoe shopping with his wife.
“I laughed and thought, ‘I don’t know where that comes from because that wasn’t the case,'” Cousins said. “Somehow it got twisted to where an employee of the store is using the word demanded. That’s not the approach I took. . . .
