Kupp Update? Torn ACL - out for the season

[Jacobarch]

The knee was weak was just a matter of time. He'll be back next year . These things happen

Looks like a completely different injury than the sprain earlier.

It was loose from the sprain, so probably that's why this knee injury happened.

His ACL was loose from an MCL sprain?

Kupp has more receiving yards in his first 25 games than any receiver in Rams history.
I think that is right. I might be making that up, but, I think that is right.
It is a loss for the O.
Reynolds has shown up though and I think he will make plays in Kupps stead.

Doesn't sound good gang.. my only gripe, why was he allowed to walk off under his own power? Why not bring a cart out to avoid making it worse?

Not a medical expert but I believe it more of a change of direction type of impact. walking straight isnt much of an issue with an ACL/MCL. people walk off on their own all the time after knee injuries, hell Rivers played a playoff game with a torn ACL.

This all but guarantees that Pharoah Cooper is the odd man out to return from the IR.

When you sprain any tendon or ligament and they heal, they will still be loose for quite a while. So even though Kupp was allowed to play and was pain free, if the ligament was still loose it can lead to strains on neighboring ligaments. And since the ligaments in question are on the same knee, I personally find this too much of a coincidence to think that's not what happened here.

Yep. He's done. Everett and Reynolds need to step up. Both have been doing that of late.

I hate that Kupp is most likely gone for the year, but if the TE's step up we can really develop a new dimension to this offense. Reynolds gets valuable PT as well.

But that being said ....fck!!

Reynold's being wide awake for that on-sides kick was big.

 

[LARAMSinFeb.]

Sucks but I feel like we have some good depth here with Reynolds, and Hodge has looked really good thus far.

 

[BonifayRam]

If the ACL is tore then Pharoh Cooper or Mike Thomas could be brought up from the IR.

 

[yrba1]

I don't expect Reynolds or Everett to duplicate Kupp's production but they should step up with the reps given to them. I'm hoping to see more 12-personnel packages down the road.

 

[Corbin]

Fml... I don’t like this at all. I feel bad for Kupp.

Sigh I’m confident in Reynolds however he’s no Kupp! :/

Time to step up fuckers!

 

[iamme33]

i'm going to wait for official report before I give up hope. my kupp runith over.

 

[dolphinlover123]

i am so sad

The power of positive thinking.

Kupp will be fine. No major injury.
