Rams HC Sean McVay said WR Cooper Kupp (hamstring) has been ruled out from Week 1, per Tyler Dragon.
McVay added there’s a possibility they could place Kupp on injured reserve, via Sarah Barshop.
McVay mentioned they are still determining the timeline of recovery for Kupp and he could miss a couple of weeks or be placed on injured reserve, via Dragon.
Kupp has been dealing with a hamstring injury this summer and suffered a setback with his recovery last week.
Los Angeles initially determined Kupp to be day-to-day after suffering a setback, but it’s evidently worse than a minor issue if he’s being considered being placed on the injured reserve.
Kupp, 30, is a former third-round pick of the Rams back in 2017. He signed a three-year, $47.25 million extension with the Rams and was set to make a base salary of $14.875 million for the 2022 season.
The Rams then signed Kupp to a new three-year, $80 million extension last summer.
In 2022, Kupp appeared in nine games for the Rams and caught 75 passes on 98 targets for 812 yards receiving and six touchdowns.
