Kirk Cousins News
Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins (Achilles) posted on his Instagram account on Tuesday that he had the cast removed from his right foot. Cousins had season-ending surgery to fix a torn Achilles just under two weeks ago and will now begin a long and grueling rehab process that he hopes will have him ready to go for full clearance by next summer at training camp. The 35-year-old will miss the rest of the 2023 season, and it remains to be seen if he'll even be back with the Vikings in 2024, as he's scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent next spring. The recently acquired Joshua Dobbs will start under center for Minnesota for the rest of the 2023 campaign.
Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins (Achilles) underwent surgery to repair his torn Achilles on Wednesday morning at Twin Cities Orthopedics in Eagan, Minnesota, according to the organization. The 35-year-old suffered the devastating injury in the Week 8 win over the Green Bay Packers, effectively ending his 2023 season. Cousins was playing some of the best football of his career. He was on a 17-game pace of 4,953 passing yards, 38 passing touchdowns, and ten interceptions. He will be a free agent this offseason. Rookie Jaren Hall is expected to start for the Vikings in Week 9, but the newly acquired Joshua Dobbs could take over the starting role as soon as Week 10 if Hall struggles in his first NFL start.
The Minnesota Vikings placed quarterback Kirk Cousins (Achilles) on injured reserve on Tuesday after he suffered a torn Achilles in his team's Week 8 win over the Green Bay Packers. The transaction was expected as soon as Cousins' injury was officially announced but the Vikings made it official on Tuesday while also opening up roster space for newly acquired quarterback Joshua Dobbs. Cousins is expected to have surgery to repair his Achilles later this week. The Vikings will start rookie Jaren Hall in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons while Dobbs is expected to serve as the backup.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins has finished no worse than the fantasy QB11 overall in each of his last three seasons, and he'll once again carry a low-end QB1 outlook into 2023. Minnesota has arguably the best wide receiver in the NFL in Justin Jefferson, a potential top-five tight end in T.J. Hockenson, and a shiny new first-round rookie in Jordan Addison. In Kevin O'Connell's first season with the team, Minnesota's offense jumped from No. 18 in pass rate in 2021 to No. 3 in 2022....
