The Minnesota Vikings placed quarterback Kirk Cousins (Achilles) on injured reserve on Tuesday after he suffered a torn Achilles in his team's Week 8 win over the Green Bay Packers. The transaction was expected as soon as Cousins' injury was officially announced but the Vikings made it official on Tuesday while also opening up roster space for newly acquired quarterback Joshua Dobbs. Cousins is expected to have surgery to repair his Achilles later this week. The Vikings will start rookie Jaren Hall in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons while Dobbs is expected to serve as the backup.
