• Rams' Cooper Kupp: Officially moved to IR

  29D ago • By RotoWire Staff

  The Rams placed Kupp (knee) on injured reserve Monday, Clarence Dennis of the Rams' official site reports. The move is merely a formality after Kupp sustained a torn ACL during the Week 10 win over the Seahawks that required season-ending surgery. Kupp's procedure went according to plan, so the Rams will hold out hope that he'll make a full recovery and have a shot at returning shortly before the 2019 season gets underway. In a corresponding transaction, the Rams activated Pharoh Cooper (ankle) from IR to bolster their return game and provide an additional healthy body at receiver.

• Rams' Cooper Kupp: Undergoes ACL surgery

  11/16/2018 • By RotoWire Staff

  Coach Sean McVay confirmed Kupp (knee) underwent successful surgery Friday to repair a torn ACL, Myles Simmons of the Rams' official site reports. McVay didn't offer a specific timeline for Kupp's recovery from the procedure, but noted that doctors detected no additional structural damage in the wideout's left knee. That seemingly bodes well for Kupp's odds of being available for the start of the 2019 season, though the lengthy rehab process could keep him sidelined for the first few weeks of training camp and the preseason. As for the rest of the current campaign, the Rams will likely prepare Josh Reynolds for a regular role in three-wideout sets on the outside of formations, while Robert Woods shifts inside to fill Kupp's usual duties in the slot.

• Rams' Cooper Kupp: Diagnosed with ACL tear

  11/12/2018 • By RotoWire Staff

  Kupp has been diagnosed with a torn ACL, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Testing confirmed the Rams' fear of a season-ending injury. The talented second-year wideout will hope to make it back for Week 1 of 2019, while Josh Reynolds figures to step in as the No. 3 receiver in an offense that almost exclusively uses three-wide sets. The Rams could alter their strategy to account for Kupp's absence, potentially using more formations that keep tight ends Tyler Higbee and Gerald Everett on the field at the same time. Kupp injured the same left knee in which he suffered an MCL sprain four weeks prior.

• Rams' Cooper Kupp: Torn ACL feared

  11/12/2018 • By RotoWire Staff

  Kupp (knee) will undergo an MRI on Monday, but the team fears he suffered a torn ACL in Sunday's game versus the Seahawks, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports. Kupp went down in the fourth quarter with a non-contact injury that saw him clutching his left knee. Of course, Kupp only returned last Sunday from a two-game absence due to a sprained MCL in that same knee. Given that connection, Rams coach Sean McVay didn't surprise many people when he said after the game that Kupp's outlook appeared grim, and now the wideout's season could be in jeopardy. The results on Monday's MRI should determine Kupp's fate, but the signs so far don't look good.

  Kupp is doubtful to return to Sunday's game against the Seahawks due to a knee injury, Myles Simmons of the Rams' official site reports. Kupp went down in a heap in the fourth quarter with what Simmons believed to be a non-contact injury. Rich Hammond of the Los Angeles Daily News reported Kupp was clutching at his left knee, which he initially hurt last month and rested with a pair of absences. Shortly after walking to the locker room, the Rams made the "doubtful to return" announcement, an ominous sign for the coming days. Kupp will be examined to determine the extent of the issue.
