How is Kirk Cousins' injury recovery going?

Veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins has provided a promising update on his injury recovery. 

Cousins tore his Achilles last October. The injury ended his 2023-24 season. 

Unlike Aaron Rodgers, Cousins had no chance of an in-season return. Moreover, Cousins suffered the injury in the final year of his contract. He is a pending free agent. 

But Cousins took to social media today and gave a positive update. The 35-year-old is back throwing footballs on an indoor surface.

Cousins' health is a crucial storyline ahead of free agency. Many NFL teams need starting quarterbacks. Cousins has plenty of starting experience and is a reliable, solid player. 

But his injury may cloud the picture. This post is a positive sign as he looks for a team. 

Furthermore, ESPN insider Dan Graziano told ESPN Radio that he expects movement on Cousins' future during the NFL Scouting Combine. 

Teams use the combine to discuss players and make potential moves. Cousins could be on top of many teams' wishlists.
