Cooper Kupp (hamstring) placed on IR Saturday

According to Adam Schefter on Twitter, Rams’ superstar WR Cooper Kupp will be placed on the IR as he recovers from a setback to his hamstring injury, meaning he will miss at least four games to begin the year.

Fantasy Impact: The possibility of Kupp being placed on the IR began to seem distinct, and now it has become official. Kupp injured his hamstring in early August and reinjured it last week. After visiting a specialist in Minnesota early this week, the team has decided to give the 30-year-old ample time to recover. In his absence, Matthew Stafford will turn to Van Jefferson and Tyler Higbee, among other weapons, to pick up the production left by Kupp.
