Redskins Coach Jay Gruden told reporters after Monday morning’s 
practice that Kirk Cousins is the starter at quarterback for 
2015.

“It’s Kirk’s team,” Gruden said.

Gruden said Cousins won the job more than Robert Griffin III 
lost it.

“I just think it’s not so much what somebody didn’t do,” Gruden 
said, “it’s just what Kirk has done and I think what he’s done 
in practice and OTAs has really opened our eyes, and he’s proven 
to be the best quarterback on our roster at this time, really. 
It’s a compliment to Kirk, not so much the other guys didn’t do 
this or didn’t do that. I just think Kirk has played so well 
that he has earned the right.”

“I’m going to do all I can to take this opportunity and run with 
it, and hopefully provide great quarterback play all season 
long,” Cousins said.

Below are transcripts of both the coach and newly named starting 
quarterback’s comments.

Jay Gruden:
Here are the coach’s comments to reporters this afternoon. 
Questions are in italics, and his answers follow.

Do you have any quarterback news for us?
We have announced that Kirk Cousins will be the starter for 2015 
moving forward and I think all three quarterbacks should be 
commended for their efforts, their willingness to get better but 
when it’s all said and done after all the film that we’ve gone 
through, all the offseason activity, all the training camp 
footage, we feel like at this time that Kirk Cousins gives us 
the best chance to win and that’s where we’re going.

When you say 2015, does that mean barring …
It’s Kirk’s team.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
