Kirk Cousins is a package of entertainment for his fans. Besides showing his football prowess on the field, last time at the NFL Awards, the quarterback sang a song for Tom Brady. This time, he opted to show his dance moves in the same award function.

Cousins’ 2023 season came to an abrupt end when he experienced a torn Achilles tendon in a Week 8 game on October 29. Despite undergoing surgery and being in the process of recovery, the question lingers: Is he fully healed? His recent dance moves shown at the award show have reignited this question. While fans are appreciating his performance, they are also expressing concerns about his injury status at the same time.

Kirk Cousins’ dance moves seem professional!

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins showcased remarkable dance skills on stage Thursday night, displaying precise moves that would impress great professional dancers out there. It was the NFL Honors award show before Super Bowl LVIII, when Cousins, along with New Orleans Saints DE Cameron Jordan, joined a group of dancers to perform on Ginuwine’s 1996 hit “Pony.”

It was the moment when they were standing in front of a standup mic, talking about the show with each other. Suddenly, side dancers cartwheeled into the scene, prompting the two athletes to showcase their perfect acting skills by faking a shocking expression.

This act is noteworthy, especially considering he is just over three months into his recovery from an Achilles tendon injury. Consequently, it has ignited the concerns of his Achilles injury among his fans.

How long does an Achilles tendon tear require to heal?

When someone undergoes surgery, especially for tendons, changes occur not only in the tendon but also in the associated muscle. The recovery process involves regaining strength in the muscle fibers and allowing sufficient time for the tendon to heal. This recovery journey is a prolonged one. Beginning with the restoration of basic functions like walking and progressing to the more demanding activities required for returning to professional sports, such as the NFL.

For individuals recovering from Achilles tendon rupture, the initial ability to walk may be restored in approximately three months. But achieving the necessary muscle strength for activities like jogging often takes around six months or even more. Additionally, the full recovery for engaging in a high level of sports, including explosive movements like pivoting and jumping, typically spans from nine to 12 months.

Therefore, the dancing moves of the 35-year-old quarterback, Kirk Cousins, raises concerns about aggravating his Achilles injury. Some are also thinking about the possibility of his comeback. Fans are hoping that his onstage dancing did not have a detrimental impact on his injury.
