Shanahan Reportedly Proposes Trading 49ers’ No. 2 Pick for Cousins in 2017
According to a report, San Francisco 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan wanted to trade the team’s No. 2 pick in the 2017 draft for quarterback Kirk Cousins. Shanahan had previously worked with Cousins when he was the offensive coordinator for the Washington Football Team. Despite Shanahan’s interest, Washington did not return the phone call regarding the trade. Cousins eventually played the 2017 season under a franchise tag and later signed with the Minnesota Vikings in free agency. The 49ers eventually acquired Jimmy Garoppolo, but it was clear that Cousins was initially Shanahan’s preferred choice as quarterback.
