Kirk Cousins generates social media reaction with glorious new mustache
Kirk Cousins is entering his 6th season as the starting quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings. While he’s not active for Saturday’s preseason finale, that hasn’t stopped Cousins from setting off a reaction on social media.
Spotted on the sidelines during the game, Cousins was seen with a new — and thick — horseshoe-style mustache. To say the look is a new one for Cousins is an understatement, to say the least.
Cousins is traditionally low-key in style and dress, but it’s hard to not make a statement with a mustache as thick and bold as this. Fans and media alike reacted to the look and deviation from the norm for the Pro Bowl QB.

Based off what I remember the stache is called “The Cowboy” on Madden, so I think Kirk’s new nickname is “Cowboy Kirk” as long as he has the stache @Vikings @NFL @EAMaddenNFL https://t.co/8NCTYNkJ2W

Cousins had another productive season for the Vikings last year, including 8 come from behind wins for the team. We’ll see if the mustache turns into a good luck charm, provided he keeps it around for the regular season.
