Find yourself a good PT. You're going to become imbalanced and tight as a result of favoring different movement patterns and postures to compensate for the injury. A good PT will do movement screens to assess your progress. There's more than just fixing your Achilles.
On the bright side, this can give you the opportunity to correct and strengthen your entire body. You could come back a stronger rider than before.
I took up daily stretching at the start of lockdown. As a lifelong runner, my hips were tight. I didn't know what I was missing until I experienced the improved mobility on the bike.
