Rams' Kupp: 'I'm where I'm supposed to be' in rehab

Rams' Kupp: 'I'm where I'm supposed to be' in rehab

Cooper Kupp's absence following a mid-November ACL tear tossed the Los Angeles Rams' offense off-kilter.

Kupp's presence in Sean McVay's game-planning wasn't fully appreciated until it was wiped away. The numbers, however, were pretty evident. Jared Goff completed 68.4 percent of his passes and generated a 113 passer rating through Week 10 with Kupp on the field. In the six regular-season tilts after the wideout's ACL tear, those numbers dipped to 59.8 percent and 83.9. Sure, other factors aided that downturn, but the slot receiver's injury certainly played a role.

The third-year pro is running and appears on track in his months-long recovery.

"I feel good. I don't think we like to talk about being on pace or off pace, ahead or behind or anything like that, but I think I'm where I'm supposed to be," Kupp said recently, via the team's official website. "Now, to get back on the field and put cleats on for the first time since the injury, it feels like it really just kind of refreshes things and gives me some new motivation to be able to go attack this thing."
