With one broad stroke on free-agent opening, Falcons goe from pretenders to contenders in NFL marketplace

The top story of NFL free agency’s kickoff Monday was this one: The Atlanta Falcons improved themselves by a few victories in reaching terms with free-agent quarterback Kirk Cousins although he’ll be 36 this summer and will need time to recover further from October surgery on his right Achilles.

O’Connell’s second team proved a tough out even after losing Cousins, a sign O'Connell can adapt and that he made a good hire in defensive coordinator Brian Flores, who was a Patriots colleague when O’Connell backed up Tom Brady. The Vikings won two games started by backup quarterback Joshua Dobbs, a mid-season trade addition, and another game started by rookie Jarren Hall.
