Kirk Cousins' jersey from historic comeback featured in Pro Football Hall of Fame
Kirk Cousins led the Minnesota Vikings to one of the greatest comebacks in NFL history against the Indianapolis Colts in December. Now, the legendary performance is being honored.
Cousins’ jersey from the game is now featured in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, highlighting the Vikings’ comeback. That comeback by the Vikings was the largest in NFL history.
The Vikings trailed the Colts 33-0 at halftime of the game in Week 15 but ended up winning the game 39-36, allowing just a field goal from the Colts in the second half.
Cousins had a legendary performance, shaking off the first half and willing his team back into the game behind a 460-yard, 4-touchdown performance. Cousins had the game-tying touchdown late in the fourth quarter on a 64-yard pass to Dalvin Cook, and Cousins helped complete the 2-point conversion after.
From there, the Vikings’ defense stood strong in overtime and they managed a field goal to win the game.
