Among the four interceptions was a 62-yard pick-6 on a rough day for Cousins.
It wasn't a day to remember for the Atlanta Falcons and Kirk Cousins, who threw four interceptions in a 17-13 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers Sunday afternoon at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. It was the Falcons' third straight loss.
That's something Cousins never did in a Vikings uniform. It was just the second time in his career that Cousins threw four interceptions, and the last time was 10 years ago. It was just a brutal game for the quarterback, who completed 24-of-39 passes overall for 245 yards, no touchdowns and the four picks, which included a 62-yard pick-6. Atlanta fell to 6-6.It comes with interesting timing as Cousins is set to make his return to U.S.
Probably not, but Sunday's performance from Cousins was bad enough that a benching doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility, however unlikely it may be. Cousins hasn't been great this season, but he hasn't been terrible, either, throwing for 3,052 yards, 17 touchdowns and 13 interceptions while completing 67% of his passes.
