During a play where Cousins was holding the football, he sustained the injury without any direct contact from an opponent. Subsequently, he limped to the Minnesota sideline and was replaced by second-string quarterback Jaren Hall.
Cousins had amassed 274 passing yards and recorded two touchdowns prior to his injury.
While it's too early to make assumptions, non-contact injuries in football are typically met with immediate apprehension, as they can sometimes lead to season-ending issues like a torn Achilles or ACL.
We will furnish additional details on Cousins' injury as soon as they become available.
