Report: Vikings Fear Rookie Mike Hughes' Knee Injury Is a Torn ACL; MRI Monday

Minnesota Vikings cornerback Mike Hughes suffered a knee injury during Sunday's victory over the Arizona Cardinals and could be done for the season.

According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, the Vikings "fear" the injury is a torn ACL but are "holding out hope." Hughes will undergo an MRI on Monday.

The Vikings selected Hughes 30th overall in the first round of April's draft, and head coach Mike Zimmer said the former UCF standout was appealing to them because of his versatility and high ceiling following a big 2017 season.
