Cooper Kupp

Cooper Kupp started the year on injured reserve due to an injury suffered during training camp and returning in Week 5, he played very well in his first two games. He had 15 receptions, 266 receiving yards, and one touchdown.

However, the past two games he has struggled with only six receptions, and 50 receiving yards. The challenge has been that he is still getting targets but hasn't been able to do much with them as he has had 17 targets during this stretch.

The uncertainty at quarterback with Matthew Stafford dealing with a UCL sprain on his throwing hand won't help Kupp moving forward. This week, the Rams have a matchup with the Green Bay Packers who have done pretty well against wide receivers this season and expectations will need to remain being tempered for the foreseeable future.
