Rams fans held their collective breath on Tuesday night after Cooper Kupp left practice with an apparent injury and was unable to return. Sean McVay didn’t have an update on his status after practice, causing everyone to worry about how long the All-Pro receiver might be out.
Kupp had an MRI overnight, which revealed he has a hamstring injury that’s expected to sideline him for a few weeks. All things considered, it could have been worse, but it’s never good to see a player go down with any sort of injury in camp.
Eric Williams of Fox Sports shared a video that appeared to show the play where Kupp got hurt and you can see him pull up early before finishing his route.

This video also shows when the injury seemed to occur, with Kupp walking back after the play.

Thankfully, there’s still more than a month until the regular season begins, so he should be back on the field before then. In the meantime, the Rams offense will miss him in practice.
