Kirk Cousins attempted to purchase No. 8 from Jakobe Thomas, a Vikings player who currently wears the jersey number. Thomas declined the payment and told Cousins the number would be available if Cousins returned to the team to play quarterback. Cousins wore No. 8 during his previous tenure with the Vikings. The exchange occurred during a conversation between the two players regarding the jersey.
