The Minnesota Vikings lost quarterback Kirk Cousins to free agency and he admitted to tampering during his introductory press conference with the Atlanta Falcons. There were reports that the Vikings might get compensation before the 2024 NFL Draft, but that didn't come to fruition.
The question remains on how the Vikings have handled the situation. General manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah has remained quiet on the subject publically but behind the scenes, there are whispers about the Vikings' process.
According to The Pioneer Press' Charley Walters, the Vikings possibly have "strongly appealed" the tampering charges.
There’s whispering that the Vikings have strongly appealed a Falcons tampering charge in the signing of Cousins that’s expected to end up in arbitration.
What does that mean? At this point, we don't know. There isn't a lot of precedent for teams receiving draft capital for a tampering charge, but it's also never been admitted by the player publically.
