Kirk Cousins owned the headlines Thursday when he signed his $84 million contract.
But his 5-month-old son, Cooper, had everyone swooning at the press conference.
The knit Vikings horns cap and megawatt toothless smile were too adorable to ignore. Cooper scored a touchdown in a tweeted video Friday morning doing the "Skol" chant with his mom, Julie Hampton. Cousins said he signed what he hoped would be a lifetime deal – "But the expectation is from both sides we raise our kids here and if everything goes as planned, we'll be here a long, long time." Good for us. That would mean lots more of baby Cooper.
