Kirk Cousins meets with President Trump in Oval Office

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins spent his first six seasons in the NFL with Washington. He made a Pro Bowl in 2016 and went 26-30-1 as a starter.

He was back in the nation’s capital on Friday and took the time to meet with President Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

Margo Martin, a special assistant to the president and communications advisor, posted a photo to her account on X captioned ‘#18 🤝#47′, referencing Cousins’ jersey number and Trump being the 47th president of the United States.

Cousins said Friday in a post on his Instagram page that he and his wife Julie were taking a trip to Washington, D.C.

Cousins is the latest NFL player to visit the White House this offseason. Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker met with President Trump last week.

Cousins is facing some uncertainty this offseason after the Falcons ended the 2024 season with rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. as the starter. Cousins will be 37 by the start of the 2025 season and nearly two years removed from surgery to repair a torn Achilles tendon.
