Kirk Cousins Screams Into GM's Ear: "How You Like Me Now!?" [VIDEO]

By Will Burchfield
Kirk Cousins is becoming known for his post-game celebrations.

It started with "You like that!?," after the Redskins' comeback win over the Buccaneers in 2015.

It continued with "Ooooo-weeee," after Cousins led his team past the Vikings last weekend.

And it may have crested on Sunday night, when the former MSU quarterback shouted into the ear of Redskins' general manager Scot McCloughan, "How you like me now!?," after throwing for 375 yards and three touchdowns in the Redskins' dismantling of the Packers.

Cousins even tussled McCloughlan's hair for good measure.

Cousins, making $19.95 million in 2016, will become a free agent in the offseason. Some writers believe he's due for a big-time raise.

Was that on Cousins' mind when he approached the Redskins general manager? Or was the exuberant quarterback merely spouting off after another big win?

Only Cousins knows.
