Rams WR Cooper Kupp avoids IR, but receives cast for ankle

Sep 19, 2024

Rams star WR Cooper Kupp suffered a high-ankle sprain in LA’s loss on Sunday, and he’ll spend the next week or so in a cast helping the swelling calm down, sources said.

The team did not place him on Injured Reserve, as there is still a chance he’s ready within four weeks.

Fantasy Impact:

A little bit of good news bad news here, as Kupp may not miss more than four games, but it still seems like it will be significant time. As it stands, Robinson is the most experienced option and will be the most likely option to lead the team in routes, with Johnson closely behind.

If you missed out on them through waiver runs and still want a piece of this offense, Whittington is the wild card, and should be targeted in deeper leagues.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
