The Rams’ injury issues became even more worrisome after star wide receiver Cooper Kupp went out of Sunday’s game due to injury. Kupp was spotted limping into the locker room at halftime and he remained out for the rest of the game with what the Rams called an ankle injury.
While Sean McVay didn’t have an update on the severity of Kupp’s injury, the situation turned negative when Kupp was spotted leaving the locker room with a walking boot on his left foot.
Kupp has had to deal with lower body injuries throughout his career, most recently missing the first four games of the 2023 season with a hamstring injury. He also missed half of the 2022 season with an ankle injury.

We’ll wait for further news on Kupp’s injury, but it’s just the latest blow to a Rams offense that’s already missing Puka Nacua for at least the next three games. If Kupp misses extended time, Xavier Smith on the practice squad could be due for a promotion.
