Kirk Cousins has seen plenty from rookie center Garrett Bradbury at training camp, his sweaty behind, specifically.

Ahead of the Vikings’ first preseason game against the Saints, the Minnesota quarterback said Friday will be a “moment of truth” for Bradbury, whose soaked shorts haven’t gone unnoticed.

“I’m going to take it back to how much he sweats again,” Cousins told reporters Wednesday, according to the Minneapolis Star Tribune. “He promises it’s not a problem in games, and it remains to be seen because his shorts today were soaked. He says it’s not a problem on game days, so the moment of truth will be Friday night.”

Cousins, who went 8-7-1 in his first season with the Vikings, did find a silver lining about playing insider the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans.

“But apparently you know they keep those domes air-conditioned, you get a break on the bench with those cooling fans, I’m hoping that really helps,” he said. “That’s a big thing I’m going to take away from Friday night, was how tough was it to grip the ball after he snaps it to me. If it is tough, we might be in pistol and shotgun all year, which coach [Gary] Kubiak and Kevin [Stefanski] wouldn’t like very much.”

Fortunately for the Vikings, they play in the enclosed US Bank Stadium.
