Redskins' Kirk Cousins: Won't play in last preseason game

Cousins will not play in Washington's preseason finale, which has been moved to Wednesday due to expected weather conditions in the Tampa Bay area.

Analysis:

The game will be moved up to 8 PM ET on Wednesday to avoid severe weather associated with Tropical Depression Nine. Regardless, Cousins wasn't going to play, as head coach Jay Gruden had already tabbed third-string quarterback Nate Sudfeld as the starter. Sudfeld will likely play the entire game if he doesn't get hurt, while Cousins will rest up for Week 1 against Pittsburgh.
