L.A. head coach Sean McVay says his star wide receiver was dealing with a lot more injuries than any of us knew about.
The Los Angeles Rams are looking to be one of the premier teams in the NFL in 2024. The Rams seem to have the players to get the job done, and that's half the battle. The other half of the battle is much more challenging, including their star players' health. Health can make or break this team, and we witnessed that firsthand in 2022 with the team's numerous amount of injuries. A lot will ride on that, especially the health of their All-Pro wide receiver, Cooper Kupp.
"Really, similar to Matthew in '22 and then Cooper last year, I don't think anybody really understands the amount of things that both of those guys were working through in each of those years," McVay said. "That gives you an appreciation, and I think both of them an appreciation for how much they love this game and how much more fun it is when you're feeling good. But you talk about a guy that's really set the tempo for the way that this offseason has gone.
Kupp entered the 2023 season on the injured reserve with a hamstring injury, and although he played the entire season outside of the season finale, it was clear he was struggling due to injuries. However, that's all behind Kupp, who said he's finally 100 percent healthy for the first time in a long time. He's playing like it, and McVay is seeing that in practice.
