Rams have been hoping Cooper Kupp could return from injury in Week 7 but can't say for sure as Matthew Stafford rests his sore back during the off week.
Cooper Kupp could be back for the Rams’ next game, but as the Rams begin their off week it is quarterback Matthew Stafford’s sore back that might be of more immediate concern. Coach Sean McVay said Monday that Stafford was experiencing soreness after the Rams’ defeat to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. The loss dropped the Rams’ record to 1-4. The Packers hit Stafford 10 times and recorded three sacks.
It’s something that we want to monitor.” Stafford, a 16th-year pro, has passed for three touchdowns, with three interceptions. He played the last three games without Kupp, who is recovering from an ankle injury. Receiver Puka Nacua is on injured reserve because of a knee injury suffered in the season opener. A return by Kupp to play against the Raiders “would be an ideal target,” McVay said, before expressing caution.
