Kirk Cousins' Wife Hopeful for His Super Bowl Return Despite His Achilles Injury

While Cousins himself sees a return this season as unlikely, his wife draws hope from Aaron Rodgers' speedy recovery from a similar injury.

  • Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins, who suffered a torn achilles less than two months ago, is not expecting to return to the field this season, but his wife is hopeful he could return for the Super Bowl if the Vikings make it.
  • Cousins' wife's hope is inspired by the speedy recovery of New York Jets' quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who suffered the same injury in Week 1 and is back at practice for the remainder of the season.
  • Cousins, however, underwent a different surgery than Rodgers, which typically has a longer recovery time.
  • The Vikings, currently sitting at 7-7 with three games left, haven't yet clinched a playoff berth.
  • The Vikings have had a notable dropoff at quarterback with Cousins out, starting three different quarterbacks over their last six games.
