Multiple reports say that Cousins indeed tore his Achilles, but an MRI will confirm what the Vikings unfortunately believe will be the diagnosis.
The injury was really hard on his teammates.
A report states that his teammates were crying in the locker room in the wake of his injury.
Concern came for Cousins when he was sacked by Packers defensive lineman Kenny Clark. Cousins immediately got up and hopped to the bench as he could not place his right leg on the ground at all as he made his way to the bench.
Cousins finished the game 23 of 31 through the air for 274 yards with two passing touchdowns and no interceptions.

With Cousins’ season likely at an end, he ends with 2,331 passing yards and 18 touchdowns over eight games.
Fifth-round pick Jaren Hall made his league debut on Sunday after Cousins went down, throwing for 23 yards. The BYU product threw for 3,171 yards and 31 touchdowns last season for the Cougars.
The team could either stick with him, make a trade before the deadline, or look to free agency.
