Los Angeles Rams star wide receiver Cooper Kupp suffered an ankle injury in Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. The Rams are already dealing with injuries to their receiving room after Puka Nacua was injured last week against the Detroit Lions and will miss a significant amount of time. Now with the injury to Kupp, Los Angeles has very limited star power on the field.
The star receiver suffered what looked like a high ankle injury in the first half of the game against the Cardinals. Kupp has suffered multiple injuries throughout his career, including last season when he missed most of the year.

Kupp finished the game with four receptions for 37 yards before going down with the injury. In 2024, he has 14 receptions for 110 yards and a touchdown after having a big game in last week’s loss against the Lions. Since the beginning of his career in 2017, the star receiver has amounted to 7,176 receiving yards, with 581 receptions and 52 touchdowns. Kupp was named Super Bowl MVP back in 2022, cementing himself as one of the greats.
While specific details on the injury have still yet to come out, it seems that Los Angeles’ season could be in serious jeopardy if it causes Kupp to miss some games. Do you think that the Rams will get their star receiver back, or will he miss significant time like Nacua?
