GREEN BAY, Wis. – Kirk Cousins threw a costly interception in the fourth quarter to blunt a Vikings comeback Sunday as the Green Bay Packers held off the Vikings 21-16 at Lambeau Field.
The Vikings rallied from a 21-point deficit, trailed by five, and were in position to take a lead with five minutes remaining in the game. But on a first-and-goal from the Green Bay 8, Cousins scrambled right and threw a pass into a crowd in the right corner of the end zone that was intercepted by Kevin King.
The Packers went three-and-out, and the Vikings took over on their own 24, but were forced to punt.
