But if 2016 goes decidedly different for Cousins than this past season -- and he doesn't yet have a long-term deal in place -- the team will have to consider the best course of action. Ultimately, it would not be a shock if a long-term deal is agreed to before 2016 kicks off and Cousins' rise continues under coach Jay Gruden and standout young offensive coordinator Sean McVay.
