Kirk Cousins Complains About DC Traffic
The Washington Redskins quarterback had a rough drive home after a win over the Cardinals on Sunday.
WASHINGTON, DC -- It's easy to forget that Washington Redskins players have to deal with the same nightmare commute that we do, and Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins couldn't resist complaining on social media after his win over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.
"Left FedEx Field 90 minutes ago, still not home," he tweeted at 6:25 p.m. "The drive-time back to Ashburn makes me want to live closer to the city!"
Of course, that's a pretty long commute even with no traffic -- a 54-minute drive, according to Google. Cousins likely takes the I-495 outer loop from FedEx Field to the Dulles Toll Road to get home. Ashburn is the location of Redskins practice facilities.
