“I’ve received information from people who are aware that efforts are being made to find homes for the family, schools for the children, and other places up to and including,” Florio remarked. “I haven’t verified this yet, but it’s just one of those minor details that makes sense. I’ve been talking to Kyle Pitts, the man who presently wears number 8, about getting number 8 before any of this is finished.”
It’s intriguing to read about the speculations linking Cousins to the Falcons because Justin Fields, the quarterback for the Chicago Bears right now, is also reportedly being linked to Atlanta.
