Cousins will attend Falcons minicamp despite trade request

Kirk Cousins is expected to attend the Atlanta Falcons' mandatory minicamp on Tuesday, despite his desire to be traded. This follows his absence from voluntary team activities. Cousins, who signed a large contract with Atlanta, was later supplanted by a first-round draft pick, Michael Penix Jr. The Falcons are reportedly seeking a significant portion of Cousins' guaranteed salary in any trade. Cousins, who has a no-trade clause, could veto any deal. The Saints are a potential landing spot, but a trade within the division is unlikely.
