Raiders HC Klint Kubiak Looked Totally Miserable At Press Conference After Kirk Cousins Was Traded [VIDEO]

The Minnesota Vikings acquired veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins from the Las Vegas Raiders ahead of the NFL trade deadline. Additionally, it was done in exchange for a 2027 third-round draft pick.

Minnesota moved for Cousins following injuries to Kyler Murray and a poor outing by backup Carson Wentz. The move reunites Cousins with the team he played for from 2018 through 2023.

With the way Justin Jefferson looked on Monday, the front office had to make a swift move. Now, Cousins is going from a team that was under .500 to a Super Bowl contender.

It doesn’t appear that everyone was in agreement with the trade.

Raiders Coach Klint Kubiak Goes Viral Looking Depressed After Kirk Cousins Trade

Las Vegas Raiders general manager John Spytek explained the trade of Kirk Cousins. He stated things came together quickly on Tuesday morning after a call from Vikings GM Nolan Teasley.

“There was nothing to speak about,” general manager John Spytek told reporters when revealing he didn’t speak to Cousins before the move. “We didn’t have any expectation that this was coming.”

Spytek also revealed that Las Vegas wasn’t shopping Cousins and “never made one call on Kirk Cousins. I got a few phone calls, but one real one this morning.”

The entire time that he was talking, Klint Kubiak was next to him, looking quite depressed. His body barely moved through one part of the explanation. He appeared upset that the trade even happened.

With Cousins traded, the Raiders are handing the starting quarterback job to 2026 No. 1 overall draft pick Fernando Mendoza.
