Kirk suffered the problem in his franchise’s victory.

Minnesota Vikings QB Kirk Cousins left today’s 24-10 victory against the Green Bay Packers in the 4th quarter because of what the organization announced as a right ankle injury.

After the triumph, the media reported that he tore his ACL. Further medical tests will determine if that’s the case.

The Vikings quarterback, who has missed only 1 National Football League start during his time in the league, was replaced by rookie QB Jaren Hall. Veteran reserve Nick MulLens is sidelined with an injury.

The incident happened with almost 10 minutes left in the match, as his team was leading 24-10 during that time. Before being forced to leave the field, he had completed 23 of 31 passes for 274 yards and 2 TDs.

Kirk will become a free agent after the end of the current campaign. He was leading the league in TD passes before Week 8.
