START

Kirk Cousins's recent signing with LV and his consistent production in the last four games signal a reliable QB starter role.

Role & volume

Cousins maintained a full snap share (100%) and averaged a solid 15.7 PPR points over his last four games, indicating he is the primary quarterback for Atlanta.

Projected role

With his move to LV, Cousins's new coaching environment under Klint Kubiak could offer an opportunity for increased rushing volume and a more dynamic offensive role, despite being ranked as QB35 on our value board.

Range (floor–ceiling)

Cousins's floor is set by his recent consistency with 9.1 PPR points in the last four games, while his ceiling could be lifted if he sees an uptick in rushing attempts and a more aggressive offensive scheme in LV.

Risk & Opportunity Analysis (3 flags)

Risk Flags

Draft Capital
The Raiders used the 2026 first-overall pick on Fernando Mendoza, who opens the season as Cousins' backup; that draft investment signals a short leash and a clear in-house successor the moment performance or team record slips.
Injury Concerns
Cousins is coming back from a prior Achilles tear, and a modest recent uptick in his own carry share adds mobility-related re-injury exposure at an age where recovery margins are thin.

Opportunity Flags

Offensive Context
Cousins operates behind an offense built around Brock Bowers and Ashton Jeanty, both elite dynasty assets, which raises the floor for efficient scoring output for as long as he holds the starting job.
