Rams WR Cooper Kupp out for season with torn ACL in his left knee Nov 12, 2018
LOS ANGELES -- Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp is out for the season after tearing his ACL during Sunday's 36-31 win over the Seattle Seahawks, coach Sean McVay confirmed Monday.
Kupp suffered the injury in the fourth quarter on a play away from the ball. He was running a route, jostled a bit with the defender, then went to the ground and grabbed his knee. Kupp walked off the field with assistance from the training staff.
"It's a huge loss for our football team, he's such an important part of what we do and a great football player, a great person, and it's tough, but fortunately we've got guys that are ready to step up," McVay said.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) - Jan 16, 2021 The Los Angeles Rams won’t have leading receiver Cooper Kupp available for their NFC divisional playoff game against the top-seeded Green Bay Packers.
Kupp headlines the Rams’ list of inactive players for Saturday’s game. He had been listed as questionable with a knee injury.
Kupp had 92 catches for 974 yards in the regular season to lead the Rams in both categories, and three of his receptions went for touchdowns. He followed that up by catching four passes for 78 yards in a 30-20 playoff victory at Seattle last week.

I personally don't believe the Rams can trust Kupp's knees.
They better not be content with Woods, Van Jefferson and Kupp's (knee injury history) as their top 3 WR's going into the 2021 season.
Drafting a rookie WR in the 2021 NFL draft is not going to be enough insurance.
They need to sign a solid veteran Free Agent WR and there is no if or buts about it.
