Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp is coming off a rough showing, failing to catch any of his three targets in the Week 15 win over the 49ers. However, outside of the hideous effort versus San Francisco, the wideout has played well during the 2024-25 campaign, catching 63 passes for 657 yards and six touchdowns. With the Jets on tap for Week 16, the Rams need a win to increase their chances of making the playoffs. The Jets defense has allowed only 10 touchdowns to opposing wideouts this season. Still, even with Puka Nacua commanding plenty of attention from Matthew Stafford from week-to-week, Kupp's upside keeps him a must-start in Week 16.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp was unable to catch any of his three targets during Thursday's divisional victory over the San Francisco 49ers. This was a frustrating night for the veteran wideout, as he was unable to impact the box score. This was the first time Kupp finished with zero fantasy points this season, and this was also his lowest target share of the campaign. Despite the disappointing results, fantasy managers should not be overly concerned with Kupp's fantasy outlook for the remainder of the season. Over his previous six games, the 31-year-old averaged 9.3 targets and 6.7 receptions per game. During this span, Kupp tallied 76.5 yards per contest and even scored four touchdowns during this span. While his matchup against the New York Jets next weekend is not ideal, given that they have allowed the fewest PPR points to opposing wideouts this season, it is hard not to expect a bounce-back given his stable production all season.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp is in a tough matchup in a divisional road game on Thursday Night Football against the 49ers. He had a good game last week with seven catches on seven targets for 80 yards and a touchdown. That total was a big bounce-back performance for Kupp after he totaled just 77 yards in his two previous games. He is averaging 9.3 targets per game in his last six games and has scored four touchdowns in his last four games, so he does have potential WR1 upside if he finds the end zone. However, he's clearly behind Puka Nacua in terms of targets in the Rams' offense, and with all 32 teams in play, he ranks outside the top 10 this week against the 49ers, who have allowed the fourth-fewest points to wide receivers this season.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp brought in five of his eight targets on Sunday against the Bills and finished with 92 receiving yards. He caught his sixth touchdown of the season with an acrobatic catch at the goal line in the third quarter of the Rams' impressive 44-42 win over Buffalo. It was a nice bounce-back game for Kupp after just 17 yards against the Saints, and he now has four scores in his last four games and is up to 657 yards for the season. He is a solid WR2 with WR1 upside for this week's matchup with the 49ers on Thursday Night Football. He has missed the Rams last three matchups with the Niners but has 40 catches for 441 yards and two touchdowns in his last four games against his division foes.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp is a strong option this week against the Bills since the Rams will need to be aggressive to keep up with the high-scoring Bills. He saw a drop in volume last week vs. the Saints and only had three catches for 17 yards on six targets. All of those were season-lows for the eighth-year veteran, but he is expected to bounce back this week. Kupp had double-digit targets in three of four games before last week, reaching over 100 yards in two of those contests while totaling three touchdowns. On the season, he's averaging over 70 yards per game and has five scores. The Bills have been the second-best team in the NFL at limiting wide receiver production, but with his volume back to normal, Kupp is still RotoBaller's WR8 this week.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp caught three of six targets for just 17 yards during Sunday's Week 13 win over the New Orleans Saints. This was Kupp's worst game of the season in terms of receptions, yardage, and fantasy points. He had been the overall WR3 over the last five weeks before Sunday's outing sunk his average and points total. On one hand, Kupp was drastically out-produced by Puka Nacua, suggesting Nacua may be Matthew Stafford's preferred option going forward. On the other hand, this was clearly an anomalous outing for the entire Rams' passing game, including Stafford, whose 183 yards represented his second-lowest mark of the season. Look for Kupp to bounce back as a mid-to-high fantasy WR1 in Week 14 against the Buffalo Bills.
Cooper Kupp Looks To Build On Solid Week 12 Showing
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp is coming off another strong performance, catching eight of his 11 targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in the Week 12 loss to the Eagles. Although he missed time this season due to injury, he's been relatively consistent in most of his appearances during the 2024-25 campaign. With a favorable matchup on the horizon versus a Saints defense that has surrendered nearly 2,000 yards to opposing wideouts this season, the fifth-worse mark in the NFL, Kupp's ceiling is higher than usual.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp gets a favorable Week 13 matchup when he squares off against the New Orleans Saints on the road. Kupp and fellow wideout Puka Nacua have been stellar in the Rams' offense since returning from their respective injuries, dominating the target share of quarterback Matthew Stafford. They'll get another opportunity to shine this weekend against a Saints defense that has been a sieve for opposing offenses -- particularly their passing attacks. New Orleans has allowed the second-most passing yards per game in the NFL through Week 12 and is giving up 37.9 fantasy points per game to wide receivers -- the sixth-highest of all squads. With his pristine role in Los Angeles' pass attack fully secured, fantasy managers can trust the 31-year-old as a top-flight option at his position. He's RotoBaller's PPR WR7 in this week's rankings.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp caught eight of his 11 targets for 60 yards and one touchdown during Sunday night's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. His touchdown came on a 27-yard pass from Matthew Stafford with just 72 seconds left in the fourth quarter. He now has 55 catches, 548 yards, and five touchdowns through seven games this season. Even though he has been less productive than teammate Puka Nacua over the last few weeks, Kupp should continue to be treated as a solid WR1 option heading into next week's game against the New Orleans Saints.
Cooper Kupp With A Tough Task Ahead Against Philly
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp had six catches for 106 yards and two touchdowns in the Week 11 win over the New England Patriots. The wideout suffered an ankle injury in the Week 2 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Fortunately, he was back on the field for the Thursday night meeting with the Vikings back in October. Since then, Kupp has played well, amassing 29 receptions and three trips to the end zone in the last four games. Despite a tough matchup with the Eagles defense on tap for Week 12, Kupp remains a welcome addition to any fantasy lineup.
