Due to his production and continued excellence, along with longevity, Kirk Cousins is also a lucrative name for brands and endorsements. Orchestrating a solid Minnesota Vikings attack as the most important member of the team at quarterback, his stock was very high as a marketable figure and name as well. As a result, his on-field success has come hand-in-hand with off-field opportunities. While relatively young in his career, Cousins is already building an impressive business resume off the field.


At the end of the 2023 NFL season, since the Vikings did not extend Cousins' contract, he became one of the most important free agents in the league. The Atlanta Falcons were quick to negotiate a deal with him offering him a four-year contract worth $180 million. This big contract will surely increase Cousins' net worth even more handsomely.

Due to his warm personality and natural charisma, Cousins has long been one of the most sought-after players in the league from a brand endorsement point of view.


His catalog of brand endorsements includes companies like Bose, Nike, Pizza Ranch, Kay Jewelers, Neuxtec, Draftkings, TLC Laser Eye Centers, KW, Sports + Entertainment, Raising Canes, Maison Realty Group, and Kentucky Fried Chicken.


Kirk Cousins Investments

During his days as a player, Cousins has also come to understand the importance of businesses in maintaining and further bolstering his network and net worth. As a result, he has actively been pursuing outside opportunities to further enhance his portfolio. Among them, one football-related endeavor has been his time as a coach at the Flex Works Kirk Cousins Football Camp.


Apart from that, he’s also taken on a role as a founder of a cereal brand. The Cousins CinnaMinn Snaps, the pun with Minnesota included, came into existence due to Cousins. He remains the brainchild of the operation.


Kirk Cousins Other Source of Income

Apart from investments, ownership, and endorsement deals with brands, Cousins has also taken on a rather unique role - an actor. One of the two quarterbacks alongside Patrick Mahomes to be featured in the hit Netflix docuseries ‘Quarterback’, Cousins would realistically have gained a significant amount for his part in the series.

Whether it was during his time with the Washington Commanders, or with the Minnesota Vikings, Cousins has been very involved in the process of charity and giving back to the community. His firm ideals have led to him having ties with two major philanthropies while also establishing a foundation of his own.


His ties to the International Justice Mission and The Salvation Army are public knowledge and serve as a testament to Cousins’ drive to do good in the world. The International Justice Mission aims to protect poor people from violence. Simultaneously, The Salvation Army ties back to Cousins’ Christian roots. It aims to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and wants to meet human needs without any discrimination.


Moreover, Cousins has also started a foundation with his wife, named The Julie and Kirk Cousins Foundation. Its mission statement reads, “Julie and I are passionate about generosity and using what we have been given to impact the world around us. The Bible says in Luke 12:48, “From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, even more will be expected.” We are grateful for the privilege to play in the NFL but also believe we have a responsibility to manage well what we have been given and to be generous with it.
