Kirk Cousins Confirms Feelings on Return to Vikings After Falcons Cast Him Aside Kirk Cousins has expressed his feelings on returning to his former fortress after a convincing victory over the Vikings

The Minnesota Vikings played the Atlanta Falcons in Week 2 of the 2025 NFL season and lost 22-6 at home.

Though winning by a massive margin, it wasn’t Kirk Cousins who led the Falcons to victory. The Falcons started with Michael Penix Jr. at the quarterback position in week 2 against the Vikings . This left Cousins with backup duties.

Though Cousins did not get a chance to play against his former team in the U.S. Bank Stadium at all on Sunday, he expressed his feelings on returning to the fortress.

After the game, Cousins uploaded a picture with his wife Julie Hampton on the gridiron at the U.S. Bank Stadium on his official Instagram account.

He captioned the post: “Lots of memories.”

The couple was smiling at his old stomping grounds of US Bank Stadium.
