Rams Anticipate Cooper Kupp's Return in Week 7
The star wide receiver is expected to rejoin the team after their bye week, boosting hopes for a turnaround in their challenging season.
- Cooper Kupp, sidelined with a high ankle sprain since Week 2, is expected to return for the Rams' Week 7 game against the Las Vegas Raiders.
- The Rams have decided not to place Kupp on injured reserve, allowing for an earlier return if he remains setback-free in practice.
- Kupp's absence has been felt as the Rams struggle with a 1-3 record, sitting at the bottom of the NFC West due to multiple key injuries.
- Puka Nacua, another top receiver, is also sidelined with a knee injury but is speculated to return by Week 8, potentially reuniting the dynamic duo.
- Without Kupp and Nacua, the Rams' offense has relied on players like Tutu Atwell, who has stepped up with 175 receiving yards over the last two games.
