How to fix exterior buried coax cable?

First off, let me say that whoever installed this cable was an idiot. Cable
was buried maybe 2" down and snaked out away from the house 6 feet then back
then back 4 feet into a flower bed and toward my front porch then back out
again toward the array of utility boxes in the front yard.

You guessed it. When I was dividing some Daylilies today I cut it (not that
I knew until after my shower, when I wanted to watch some football).

All my experience is with interior cable.

I was going to leave the twist on connectors I've already installed on the
cable right where they are, and then put in a regular nickel plated coupler,
and then shrink wrap it. Is this good enough?
