The Los Angeles Rams may have star wide receiver Cooper Kupp back for their next game, but the team is currently more focused on quarterback Matthew Stafford’s sore back following a tough loss to the Green Bay Packers. Despite experiencing soreness, Coach Sean McVay does not anticipate Stafford being limited in practice once the team returns next week. Stafford, who has been playing through hits and injuries, has passed for three touchdowns and three interceptions so far this season.
Meanwhile, Kupp has been sidelined with an ankle injury, and there is hope he will be ready to go for the Rams’ next game against the Raiders, although McVay remains cautious about setting a guarantee return date. Additionally, receivers Puka Nacua and offensive linemen Steve Avila and Joe Noteboom are also on injured reserve, but there is no set timeline for their returns.
The Rams, now 1-4, have faced significant challenges on the field this season, including protecting Stafford from hits and injuries. With Kupp potentially returning and Stafford’s toughness and experience, the team remains optimistic about their chances moving forward. The upcoming off week will be crucial for the team’s recovery and preparation as they look to bounce back in the next game against the Raiders.
