Rams head coach Sean McVay didn’t give a full update on Cooper Kupp but said the injury “didn’t look good, didn’t sound good.”

The Athletic’s Jourdan Rodrigue reports that Kupp did seem to have avoided worst-case scenario with the injury. He’ll go through more testing this week to determine the situation. Kupp suffered the injury during the second half when his leg was rolled up on by Cardinals DB Marco Wilson. He left the game and was checked out on the bench by staff and did not return to the game. The Rams are now 3-6 after the loss to the Cardinals and their reign as Super Bowl champs may come to an end much sooner than they thought as the season is starting to become lost. We’ll see how the Rams go forward with Kupp and how long he’ll be out for.

Rams WR Cooper Kupp is being checked out on the bench for an apparent leg injury.

This is the last thing the Rams and fans want to see is Kupp dealing with an injury. His leg was rolled up on by a Cardinals defender while going for a catch and was immediately checked out on the sideline. He’ll be heading to the locker room. We’ll absolutely look for more information here but hopefully it is not a serious injury for one of the best players in the league.

Cooper Kupp expected to play.

Kupp won't practice Wednesday, according to Rodrigue's tweet. Her tweet went on to say McVay said this week no structural damage for Kupp's ankle, and the team would hold him out Wednesday. So it seems like the team has a plan for Kupp heading into Week 9.

Sean McVay says he expects Cooper Kupp to play Sunday against Tampa Bay.

The Rams looked like they dodged a bullet here. Keep an eye on Kupp's injury status during practices this week, but so far it seems like he'll be good to go after a scary looking injury in garbage time in Week 8. Rodrigue went on to tweet that McVay said Kupp is just dealing with some tissue swelling and there was no structural damage for Kupp’s ankle.

Rams WR Van Jefferson (knee) is out vs. the Bills.

It was reported the Rams would use a committee approach behind Cooper Kupp and Allen Robinson if Jefferson couldn't go so we'll assume that's the plan at this point. That means a likely combo of Skowronek and Atwell.

Hearing WR Van Jefferson’s surgery went great, and my sense is that it’s realistic to believe he can return by the Sept. 8 opener.

Rodrigue went on to tweet that obviously Jefferson's experience in the offense means he can get back on board quickly once cleared. She added the team won’t pressure him, but so far things seem encouraging. The Rams should be just fine at WR with Kupp and Robinson. Next up are Skowronek and Atwell.

Rams head coach Sean McVay says Jefferson has a "little knee tweak", the timetable for return is a few weeks.

This puts a bit of a damper on anyone who has already drafted Van Jefferson this summer, but McVay also stated that there is "definitely a chance" that he will be ready for the season-opener against the Bills. This may end up being the landing spot for Will Fuller, who still remains a free agent at this time.

I'm told Rams WR Odell Beckham Jr. has tested positive for COVID19, per league source.

Like the Browns, the Rams closed their training facility and entered league protocols on Tuesday. Vaccinated players, of course, need to test negative twice in 24 hours to get cleared, but it's another player on a long list over the past few days.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp will be a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Kupp is dealing with a toe injury and will be limited in the team's walkthrough. The Rams play on Monday night and will not be hosting a full practice today. Kupp does not appear to be in any danger of missing Week 14's contest against the Arizona Cardinals. Feel free to fire him up as one of the top options in all of fantasy football. Kupp is our number one ranked wide receiver for Week 14.
