2025 NFL Free Agency is rolling right along as we are exactly one month away from the draft, Mostly. There are still many questions at the last remaining quarterback spots, largely due to Aaron Rodgers having not made up his mind yet on where he will play in 2025. Rodgers did meet again with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Friday, and most signs point to him signing there, but that is still yet to be determined. Another potential snag in quarterback free agency is a potential trade by the Atlanta Falcons of backup quarterback Kirk Cousins.
Now, it appears that we will have to wait at least a month longer for that domino to fall. According to SI.com’s Albert Breer, in order to avoid a similar situation that he found himself in after signing with the Falcons, Cousins will elect to not waive the no-trade clause in his contract until after the 2025 NFL Draft. This makes sense from Cousins’ perspective, as he wants to be a starting quarterback in 2025, and does not want to be traded to a team that has drafted a rookie quarterback. On the other hand, this could come back to bite Cousins, as teams may decide not to wait, and draft a rookie quarterback instead of signing one. Andy Bunker and Randy McMichael further explore the 2025 free agency cycle, and what we may end up seeing before and after the 2025 NFL draft.
