Two students of that college spotted the Minnesota Vikings quarterback on the campus.<\/p>\n<p>When no one believed them, their professor gave them a challenge: if they could get Cousins into the classroom, they would get extra credit.<\/p>\n<p>On hearing this, Cousins not only went with them, he literally drove them to the campus and spoke to their entire class, earning them the extra credit they deserved.<\/p>\n<p>The Vikings\u2019 star QB also tweeted about the whole incident on his X (formerly Twitter) account, writing:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>Two https:\/\/twitter.com\/_MLFootball\/status\/1750956672296587729Students stopped me after my PT [Physical Therapy] session.. told me they\u2019d get extra credit if I showed up to class so I had to stop by.
