Vikings to start reacquired QB Kirk Cousins vs. Packers
Key Points:
- Minnesota Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell confirmed that quarterback Kirk Cousins will start Sunday against the Green Bay Packers, just five days after being reacquired from the Las Vegas Raiders.
- Cousins impressed the coaching staff with his quick adaptation, despite limited practice time and reuniting with some unfamiliar teammates.
- O'Connell highlighted Cousins' strong command and accurate passing during the week, noting no concerns despite the quick turnaround.
- The Vikings will be without tight end T.J. Hockenson due to wrist and chest injuries, and wide receiver Jordan Addison is questionable with a thumb injury sustained in practice.
