Cooper Douglas Kupp (born June 15, 1993) is an American football wide receiver for the Los Angeles Rams of the National Football League. He attended Eastern Washington University, where he won the Walter Payton Award as a junior, before being drafted in the third round of the 2017 NFL Draft by the Los Angeles Rams.
What exactly is Cooper Kupp’s injury?
Injury: Ankle
Status: Injured Reserve
UPDATE (Dec. 15): According to Andrew Siciliano of DirecTV’s “NFL Sunday Ticket,” Rams head coach Sean McVay stated on Tuesday that he is “hard pressed” to see Kupp (ankle) return from injured reserve before the season’s end.
UPDATE: Cooper Kupp will have surgery on Wednesday to treat a sprained right high ankle.
Kupp was hurt while attempting to catch a pass, his right ankle appearing to be rolled up beneath Cardinals cornerback Marco Wilson. Because he couldn’t put weight on his leg, Kupp needed help getting to the sidelines.
The Rams and Kupp are hoping for another gold strike from the wideout to avoid a season-ending injury.
“It just got rolled up a little bit,” Kupp told Sarah Barshop of ESPN. “The foot became entangled, but I believe it was able to slip out before causing too much damage.”
Kupp had a similar scare against the San Francisco 49ers two weeks ago but did not miss any time.
