WR Cooper Kupp is pushing to play against the Eagles. The Rams of course want to use Kupp on those deep over routes and will test it out to see if he can get close to max speed.
The better news, I'm told the injury was not as serious (in terms of long term) as initially feared.

So for those of us that have Kupp and Puka, how are we attacking this once Kupp is back full speed?

More than likely starting both at first. My other WRs are Juedy, Hopkins, and Lockett which aren't setting the world on fire. My PPR league does start 2 WRs and 2 Flex spots although I'm getting to the point where my flex spots will be filled by RBs with Kamara back and Achane dominating (Mixon and Walker been my 2 starting RBs).

I think you’re looking at a Kupp/Woods situation from a few years ago. Both should be good plays.

While RB Kyren Williams (hip contusion) is projected to not participate in today's practice, Sean McVay said it's just a precautionary move.

McVay said he expects Williams to play against the Eagles.

"He'll be good," McVay said.

Achane's snap percentage has increased with each effort (0% - 8% - 42% - 66%). Meanwhile, Raheem Mostert's playing time has decreased since sharing the backfield with the explosive rookie (74% - 51% - 41%).

McVay is notorious for being unreliable as far as injuries. Keep an eye on Kyren this week.

Got him too

My RB situation has tended to drop off a cliff with big injuries around this time of year. Buyers/Traders beware

WR Cooper Kupp is expected to play against the Eagles barring any setbacks, per sources. The Rams are being cautious, keeping him on a count at practice. I'm told he's felt good enough to extend for the football, even making a one-handed grab.

The Denver Broncos have been a train wreck in 2023. They allowed a team to score 70 points; they almost lost to the Chicago Bears and are struggling to stay above water this NFL season. Something else they need help with is explosive runs against their defense. They have the worst percentage of explosive runs plays against in the NFL at 48.9%.

With the New York Jets coming to town, this is the perfect chance for Breece Hall to show out and have an RB1-level game. Breece Hall has 72.4% of yards coming from explosive runs this season.

Trade! The Chicago Bears are trading WR Chase Claypool to the Miami Dolphins, per league sources. It will be a 2025 6th from Miami for Claypool and a 2025 7th from Chicago.

Worth taking a flyer on Claypool?

Will this negatively impact Waddle?

Should make Tua slightly better yes?
