Kirk Cousins is officially a member of the Minnesota Vikings after signing his fully guaranteed three-year, $84 million contract.

Cousins said that the reason he decided to play for the Vikings wasn't simply for the money.

The quarterback's agent, Mike McCartney, echoed those sentiments.

"Two things I kept saying to Kirk,” McCartney said. "Money is important, contract is important but I want you on a daily basis to jump out of bed excited to go to work, to go into a building that has a great culture and a chance to win. But at the same token at the end of the day, I want you to get excited to go home where your wife and family are flourishing and if we can find both of those I think we’ve done our job."

The agent also said that Minnesota's offer wasn't the largest one of the table for Cousins. McCartney didn't name who might have offered the quarterback more money overall.
