Kirk Cousins hilariously reveals he had to tell his centers 'to go change pants' due to 'some brown stains' as he jokes about woes of being a quarterback with unclean teammates at the snap

New Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins revealed he has had to tell centers he has played with to change their pants after he saw brown stains while taking snaps.  

Cousins did not reveal the names of the unsanitary centers,  or whether he was with Washington or Minnesota, or both, when the close calls with the stains occurred. 

Cousins' unique revelation was made on 'Cold As Balls', the web show hosted by Kevin Hart where the comedian and a guest take a plunge into an ice-filled tub for an interview. 

Cousins spent six years in both Washington and Minnesota, before signing with Atlanta earlier this month. 

Throughout his NFL career, Cousins has been snapped the ball from close range, as well as from a shotgun position.

Cousins has gotten very close to the butts of centers to receive the snap of the football

'What is your biggest concern during a snap?' Hart questioned. 'Are you ever concerned with the smell of the center and you down there?'

'First thing I do post-practice is go to the bathroom sink, scrub my right hand,' Cousins answered. 'Becuase, yes, it is a problem. And we have had some close calls with some centers who had some brown stains on white practice pants during practice. I tell them go "change your pants."' 

'You're sh***ing on yourself,' Hart added. 'And ultimately, that s*** will be on the reverse side of my palm. Wash your a** man.' 

'My immune system has to be so strong,' Cousins continued.  

Hart and Cousins also discussed his career trajectory, his Achilles surgery, and his family life

Hart used the conversation about the smell of Cousins' right hand to give a shameless plug to Old Spice's deodorant, the sponsor of 'Cold As Balls'. 

Cousins also showed off the scar from his Achilles surgery, which caused him to miss more than half of last season. 

The Falcons signed Cousins to a four-year, $180million contract despite him turning 36 over the summer.
