A lot of people liked the Washington Redskins to be the team to beat out of the NFC East before the season started. However, things didn’t go as planned and quarterback Kirk Cousins found himself playing in a charity flag football game on Saturday instead of preparing for Super Bowl LI.
In a battle between Team Cousins and Team Flutie, the charitable football game also included other professional athletes such as Dallas Keuchel, Andy Dalton, Michael Bennett, Sage Northcutt, and many more.
With Team Cousins down to their final drive of the game and trailing by 5, the Washington quarterback completed a deep pass to Redskins defensive end Ricky Jean Francois. Since Francois is used to playing on the defensive side of things, he failed to secure the ball after he made the catch, which eventually caused time to expire and Cousins to lose his mind on the referee.
Here's another view of Cousins losing his mind on the referee for not adjusting the clock.
You have to at least admire the passion that Cousins plays with, but going that far and pushing the referee, especially in a charity flag football game is a little too much. He shared this tweet after the game, perhaps to show fans he had cooled off and wasn't as angry as he seemed about the missed call.
This went from being a game that no one really knew about, to the charity game where Kirk Cousins completely lost it on a referee.
We don’t like that, Kirk. We don't like that at all.
