Cousins Upset Over Defenders Hitting His Arm in Practice

Kirk Cousins was frustrated during Tuesday’s joint Raiders‑Texans practice when defenders repeatedly hit his arm in the pocket. After the session he said, “my elbow got hit,” noting that past game hits have left him with scars that can derail a season. Cousins asked teammate Maxx Crosby to stay off his arm and reminded the Texans of the same rule.

He questioned the red‑jersey protocol that should keep defenders away, saying he might as well remove the jersey because the rule seems ineffective. Meanwhile, the Raiders are wrestling with when Cousins will give way to first‑overall pick Fernando Mendoza. bettingx.club
