Kirk Cousins is ranked 29th among quarterbacks in PFN's Week 4 rankings. Despite this, he has performed well for the undefeated Raiders, showing a completion percentage above 65% in all games and throwing three touchdowns each week. Cousins has primarily played without tight end Brock Bowers, who has recently returned from a knee injury and made an immediate impact.
