Kirk Cousins Not A Starting Option Against New England

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins has limited upside in Week 12. Cousins is coming off of a dreadful Week 11 against the Dallas Cowboys, where he completed 12-of-23 passes for 105 yards and fumbled once. The 11-year veteran is taking on a New England Patriots defense that is top-10 against the pass this season. While he'd like to bounce back from his rough outing last week, it's looking unlikely against this improving defense. Consider Cousins is a QB2 in Week 12.
