Rams coach Sean McVay said wide receiver Cooper Kupp will return to practice next week when his window of activation first opens up.
Los Angeles placed Kupp on injured reserve before the season after the wide receiver injured his hamstring early in training camp. While Kupp tried to get ready for the start of the season, the Rams decided it was better to give the 30-year-old at least the first quarter of the season off.
By starting the year on injured reserve, Kupp is required to miss at least the first four games of the season. By rule, the Rams have a 21-day window to activate Kupp to their active roster that begins next week, and McVay said the team will consult Kupp before deciding when to activate him.
