Kirk Cousins and Baker Mayfield will be bitter rivals Thursday night, but the Falcons and Buccaneers quarterbacks will both be donating $50,000 to Hurricane Helene victims.
They may be division rivals who will battle on 'Thursday Night Football' in Week 5, but Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins and Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield have set aside their NFL differences to help a common cause. Cousins and Mayfield announced they will each donate $50,000 to Team Rubicon to help those affected by Hurricane Helene, which impacted both of their respective fan bases in the Southeast United States.
That’s why Kirk and I are teaming up and each donating $50,000 to support Team Rubicon.' Cousins added, ' volunteers who are on the front lines, getting their hands dirty and getting involved to do all the work it takes to clean up. We’re making donations, and we want to bring a call to action to encourage all of you to give what you can.' Mayfield and Cousins are among many who have provided funds for hurricane cleanup, including Mayfield's boss, Buccaneers owner Jay Glazer, who donated $1 million to support local nonprofit organizations in aiding those affected by the hurricane in the Tampa Bay area.
