Kirk Cousins’ season has possibly come to an abrupt end with a potential Achilles injury he suffered in Minnesota’s 24-10 victory over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.
It’s a terrible moment in a season that started rough but began to look promising after the team strung some victories together.
The Vikings started the season 1-4 but have since turned it around winning their last three straight contests. At 4-4, Minnesota was on the right path for a playoff berth, even with nine games remaining.
This has led to many thinking the Vikings could try and pull off a last-minute trade.
Could New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones be available to the Vikings if Minnesota came calling?
According to a new rumor, that phone call as well as a trade offer has already happened.

It might not actually be a bad idea considering the Patriots are not just buried at the bottom of the AFC East, but the conference as well with their 2-6 record.
The Patriots find themselves well out of playoff contention, so why not consider selling at the trade deadline? The Patriots could likely net a pick or two in the 2024 draft and New England could finish the season with Bailey Zappe or Malik Cunningham under center.
Cousins’ durability is one of his finest and most remarkable traits, but that never meant he was invincible, so now the Vikings must adapt to the current situation.
