Mandatory Credit: Brad Rempel-USA TODAY Sports/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsOct 30 (Reuters) - Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins will miss the rest of the NFL season after an MRI on Monday confirmed he suffered an Achilles tendon tear during a Week 8 victory over the Green Bay Packers, the team said. The Vikings said the timeline and detail of the 35-year-old quarterback's upcoming surgery will be determined this week. "Our whole team, our whole organization, we're all hurting this morning for Kirk," Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell told reporters. With one game left in Week 8, Cousins, who is in the last year of his contract with the Vikings, is tied for the NFL lead with 18 touchdown passes this season and is second in passing yards.

[1/4] Oct 29, 2023; Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA; Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins (8) gets pressure from Green Bay Packers linebacker Kenny Clark (97) in the first quarter at Lambeau Field. Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell told reporters after the team's 24-10 win over the Green Bay Packers that he feared it was an Achilles injury. Cousins was 23-of-31 passing for 274 yards with two touchdowns at the time of the injury. While likely the worst injury to a quarterback in the early games on Sunday, Cousins was far from alone. Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford left with a right thumb injury in Los Angeles' blowout road loss to the Dallas Cowboys.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — The Green Bay Packers are like a finicky old car that needs several hits to the ignition before finally making some progress. That helps explain why the Packers (2-4) carry a three-game skid into Sunday's home matchup with the Minnesota Vikings (3-4). But it’s tougher to pin down why the Packers struggle so much at the start of games. “I think guys kind of take a breath and, as the game goes on, they just feel more comfortable and start executing better,” Stenavich said. Love believes once the Packers get that “monkey off your back” by making a big play early, the first-half points might start coming in bunches.

(AP) — Travis Kelce is expected to be available when the Kansas City Chiefs play the Denver Broncos on Thursday night, despite hurting his ankle when he slipped on the turf in last weekend's win over the Minnesota Vikings.

The person confirmed the decision to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Tuesday because the Vikings had not finalized the move. Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell, speaking to reporters on Monday, made it clear the team would be extra cautious with their most important and extremely competitive player.

Their entire offense is built around Jefferson, who has set all kinds of all-time records just five games into his fourth NFL season. He has 36 catches for 571 yards and three touchdowns and never has missed a game in his career until now.
