3 prediction markets price this story:
- Before the 2027-28 season — the market puts it at 88%, closing 30 Sept 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Kirk Cousins officially announces his retirement from the NFL before the start of the 2027-28 season. It resolves to No if he does not make such an announcement by that deadline. Readers often mistake a game appearance or team roster status for retirement, but only a formal retirement announcement counts.
- Kirk Cousins — the market puts it at 5%, with $6k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 21 Feb 2028. The market resolves to Yes if Kirk Cousins is named the Associated Press Comeback Player of the Year for the 2026-27 NFL season. It resolves to No if he does not receive this specific award during that period. Readers often mistake the deadline, thinking the resolution depends on his performance in a single game rather than the end-of-season award.
- Will Minnesota Vikings win the 2027 NFL NFC Championship? — the market puts it at 7%, with $27 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 25 Jan 2027. The market resolves based on which team wins the 2027 NFC Championship game. If a team is eliminated from playoff contention before winning the championship, that outcome resolves to "No." Readers often mistake the linked Week 8 regular-season game as the decisive event, but only the final NFC Championship game matters for resolution.
Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
