Minnesota Vikings quarterback, Kirk Cousins, left during the second half of the team’s 24-10 victory over the Green Bay Packers after a non contact injury.
The team called it an ankle injury.
Fans, and even some doctors, online said the injury could be much worse, even up to the point of a season ending achilles related condition.
Let’s go to the tweets..
Update: And the fans were right…
Kirk Cousins tore his Achilles today, per source. An MRI will be taken to confirm.

This is Kirk Cousins's injury. Non-contact and his achillies goes the same way that Aaron Rodgers's did.
Fuck. Brutal.pic.twitter.com/bfBkr0JsA8

If it turns out to be the achilles, Cousins would be the second starting quarterback to go down for the season, after his rival, Aaron Rodgers left just a few plays into the Monday Night Football opener.
