Washington wants to find a long-term resolution with Kirk Cousins this offseason and are not afraid to lose him. Washington believes Colt McCoy would be a bridge quarterback if they trade Cousins.

Washington would like to avoid having Cousins play 2017 under the franchise tag again, which would setup another offseason of uncertainty in 2018.

One source described the vibe around Washington as: “Just a bunch of strange s---.”

Washington could rent McCoy while looking for a younger upgrade at quarterback instead of investing fully in Cousins.
