Updating previous reports, Los Angeles Rams WR Cooper Kupp (ankle) could return within four weeks. He'll wear a cast for a week to combat swelling.
Huddle Up: Keep Kupp stashed in all formats. The Rams will have to spread the ball around to Demarcus Robinson, Tutu Atwell and Colby Parkinson in Kupp and Puka Nacua's absences. Robinson and Atwell were urgent pickups off waivers, and Parkinson is a low-end TE1.

Los Angeles Rams WR Cooper Kupp (ankle) is not currently expected to be placed on injured reserve, according to sources on Wednesday, Sept. 18.
Huddle Up: If Kupp doesn't land on injured reserve, that means the Rams expect him back sooner than the four-week minimum he would be out if placed on the list. That said, that doesn't mean Kupp will play this week. Assuming he sits, and with Puka Nacua (knee) on IR, Demarcus Robinson, Tutu Atwell and Tyler Johnson should all see more work. Robinson figures to be the best bet among the three to produce, but none of them are suggested lineup options.

Los Angeles Rams WR Cooper Kupp (ankle) is expected to miss an extended period of time because of his ankle injury and is a candidate for the Reserve/Injured list, according to head coach Sean McVay.
Huddle Up: Kupp will have to miss at least four weeks if he is placed on IR, so fantasy players should monitor the situation. Demarcus Robinson and Tutu Atwell probably will be the main receivers with Kupp and Puka Nacua sidelined, but neither is more than a possible flex option in some leagues.

Los Angeles Rams WR Tutu Atwell caught three of his four targets for 48 yards in a 41-10 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 2.
Huddle Up: With Puka Nacua and now Cooper Kupp both battling injurues, Atwell could find himself with a bigger role in the passing attack. He is worth grabbing if you need immediate receiver help.
Posted 9/16/2024 3:22 am GMT
Los Angeles Rams TE Colby Parkinson caught one of his two targets for 12 yards in a 41-10 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 2.
Huddle Up: Parkinson had four catches in the opener, but he was an afterthought in the passing attack against the Cardinals, even with Cooper Kupp leaving early. He will have to string together a few decent outings before he warrants serious attention from fantasy owners.
Posted 9/16/2024 3:16 am GMT
Los Angeles Rams WR Demarcus Robinson caught two passes for a team-high 50 yards in a 41-10 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 2.
Huddle Up: A week after Puka Nacua left with an injury, Cooper Kupp exited the Week 2, leaving Robinson as one of top receiving options. If Nacua and Kupp aren't ready for Week 3, Robinson will be worth a look in deeper leagues.
Posted 9/16/2024 3:01 am GMT
Los Angeles Rams RB Blake Corum rushed eight times for 28 yards in a 41-10 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 2.
Huddle Up: Corum is off to a quiet start, but the rookie could see his role grow as the season goes on. More importantly, he could find himself leading the backfied if Kyren Williams were to miss time. Keep Corum stashed away.
Posted 9/16/2024 2:52 am GMT
Los Angeles Rams RB Kyren Williams rushed 12 times for 25 yards and a touchdown and caught four passes for 27 in a 41-10 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 2.
Huddle Up: Williams has struggled with efficiency in the first two games, but he has scored in both contests while seeing plenty of touches. He remains an RB1.
Posted 9/16/2024 12:06 am GMT
Los Angeles Rams WR Cooper Kupp (ankle) left the Week 2 game against the Arizona Cardinals, and he was unable to return. After the game, Kupp was in a walking boot on his left leg.
Huddle Up: We'll watch Kupp's practice status during the week before making a determination for Week 3 against the San Francisco 49ers. If he cannot go, it appears Demarcus Robinson would be the No. 1 wideout, with Tyler Johnson as the No. 2, and Tutu Atwell and Jordan Whittington as the others. Stay tuned.
Posted 9/15/2024 2:22 pm GMT
Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) could be sidelined for five to seven weeks as he recovers from a posterior cruciate ligament injury, according to multiple sources.
Huddle Up: Since Nacua has already been placed on injured reserve, the earliest he could have returned is Week 7's game versus the Las Vegas Raiders, following the Rams' bye in Week 6. However, sources now believe his availability for this game and Week 8 against the Minnesota Vikings are in question. WR Demarcus Robinson should see more targets in Nacua's absence but WR Cooper Kupp is the club's only must-start option in fantasy leagues.
Posted 9/15/2024 1:03 am GMT
Los Angeles Rams RB Kyren Williams faces the Arizona Cardinals in Week 2, and Williams averaged 181.0 yards from scrimmage in two meetings with the the Cardinals last year, scoring three total touchdowns.
Huddle Up: Williams had a relatively quiet opener, but the good news is that he logged 21 touches. Expect him to do more with his opportunities against an Arizona defense that allowed 130 yards on the ground in Week 1.
Posted 9/09/2024 9:36 pm GMT
Updating a previous report, Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) will be placed on the Reserve/Injured list and will be sidelined for at least four games, according to head coach Sean McVay.
Huddle Up: Demarcus Robinson and Tyler Johnson likely will be more involved in the passing game while Nacua is sidelined. Both players are coming off solid Week 1 performances and could be short-term flex options in deeper leagues. Cooper Kupp is the only weekly starting option among the Rams receivers.
Posted 9/09/2024 7:46 pm GMT
Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) re-aggravated his previous knee injury and is considered week-to-week, according to sources Monday, Sept. 9.
Huddle Up: This is a tough blow for Nacua, who was primed for another huge season. It's encouraging that it's not a long-term injury, but managers may need to see if Demarcus Robinson is available as a WR3 option.
Posted 9/09/2024 3:47 am GMT
Los Angeles Rams WR Tyler Johnson posted five receptions for 79 yards on seven targets in Week 1 against the Detroit Lions.
Huddle Up: Johnson saw an uptick in production, sharing the WR2 job behind Cooper Kupp once Puka Nacua exited early due to a knee injury. Johnson could have some value as a WR4 or flex fantasy option in Week 2 against the Arizona Cardinals if Nacua is forced to miss any time.
Posted 9/06/2024 8:22 pm GMT
Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) practiced in full for the third straight day on Friday, Sept. 6, and has been removed from the injury report ahead of Week 1.
Huddle Up: There was never really any concern about Nacua after he logged a full practice to begin the week. After a great rookie campaign, Nacua is a WR1 ahead of a potential shootout against the Detroit Lions.
Posted 9/05/2024 11:20 pm GMT
Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) fully participated in practice Thursday, Sept. 5.
Huddle Up: Nacua should not have any limitations during the Week 1 game and is a must-start option in all fantasy leagues.
Posted 9/04/2024 11:53 pm GMT
Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Sept. 4.
Huddle Up: Nacua missed some time during the preseason because of the injury but should not have any limitations in Week 1. He will see plenty of targets during the game and should be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.
Posted 8/29/2024 8:41 pm GMT
Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) practiced in full on Thursday, Aug. 29, and is "ready to roll" for the regular season, according to head coach Sean McVay.
Huddle Up: It appears all is well with the second-year receiver, who should be considered a good value in the middle or late second round of drafts. What is up for debate was how much of Nacua's historic rookie season was a function of Cooper Kupp not being healthy for most of it and how much of it was Nacua being a dominant player. Kupp figures to be the better value simply because he is going later in drafts, but it should surprise no one if both players finish as top 15 receivers.
Posted 8/27/2024 3:18 pm GMT
Los Angeles Rams TE Tyler Higbee (knee) will open the season on the Physically Unable to Perform list and miss the first four games.
Huddle Up: Colby Parkinson will be a TE2/bye-week filler until Higbee returns. Higbee is only worth stashing in deeper leagues as he'll be in a glut of midrange TE1s when he returns and will need time to kick rust off.
Posted 8/26/2024 9:40 pm GMT
Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) participated in individual drills during practice Monday, Aug. 26.
Huddle Up: Nacua is working his way back from a knee injury, but fantasy players will have a better idea of his status next week. He is a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues when he is healthy.
Posted 8/19/2024 8:49 pm GMT
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford (hamstring) was limited to individual drills during practice Monday, Aug. 19.
Huddle Up: Stafford likely will be eased back into practice so the team can make sure he is ready for Week 1. He has one of the better receiver duos to work with in the NFL but may only be a No. 2 quarterback in most leagues.
Posted 8/15/2024 10:03 pm GMT
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford (hamstring) is expected to participate in practice next week, according to head coach Sean McVay.
Huddle Up: Stafford probably will be eased back into practice so the team can make sure he is ready for Week 1. He probably will be a No. 2 quarterback in the majority of fantasy leagues this season.
Posted 8/14/2024 9:02 pm GMT
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford (hamstring) left practice early Wednesday, Aug. 14, because of hamstring tightness.
Huddle Up: Stafford does not appear to be dealing with a serious injury, but fantasy players can monitor the situation to see how long he sits out. He has a good group of pass catchers to work with but probably is only a No. 2 fantasy quarterback in fantasy leagues.
Posted 8/07/2024 12:30 am GMT
Updating a previous report, Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) is considered week-to-week because of a knee injury, but head coach Sean McVay said Nacua should be ready for the start of the regular season.
Huddle Up: Fantasy players can monitor the situation over the next few weeks but should expect Nacua to be available for Week 1. He is coming off an outstanding rookie season and should be a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues.
