2024 Fantasy Outlook
Kupp missed the first four games of 2023 with a hamstring injury and sat out Week 18 after the Rams clinched a playoff spot. In between, his numbers equated to a 17-game pace of 84 catches for 1,044 yards and seven TDs, which was a major downturn relative to the previous two seasons but still made him a quality starter for fantasy managers and the Rams alike. He averaged 7.9 targets per game -- down from 11.1 in 2021-22 -- and his catch rate plummeted to a career-low 62.1 percent even though his aDOT (8.3) was in line with previous years. Plays that had gone to Kupp in 2021-22 became Puka Nacua targets or Kyren Williams carries in 2023, with the veteran WR getting just eight passes behind the line of scrimmage (8.7 percent of his targets) and only 27 looks 10-plus yards downfield (29.3 percent). A whopping 62 percent of his targets came between the LOS and nine yards downfield, up from 50.3 percent in 2021 and 37.9 percent in 2022. Basically, he got fewer screens and fewer deep/intermediate passes, and then also had a career-worst 70.2 percent catch rate in that 0-9 yard range. A rebound is possible in his age-31 season ahead -- especially if some of the downturn was a result of missing so much time in August/September -- though he might only be the third fiddle now behind Williams and Nacua in a top-heavy Rams offense. The good news is that Kupp is still partnered with QB Matthew Stafford under head coach Sean McVay, and at his new ADP he doesn't need to approach the record-setting 2021 production to be a good fantasy pick.

RANKS
Five catches in return
Kupp (ankle) brought in five of eight targets for 51 yards and a touchdown in the Rams' 30-20 win over the Vikings on Thursday night.
ANALYSIS
Kupp was second to fellow returnee Puka Nacua (knee) across the board in his receiving line, but the former was the only one of the two to find the end zone. Kupp recorded a seven-yard touchdown grab early in the second quarter, the second score of his injury-shortened campaign. Provided trade rumors that have been circulating about Kupp prove inaccurate, the veteran wideout should once again be in for a key role during a Week 9 road matchup against the division-rival Seahawks on Sunday, Nov. 3.

Consider it close to incredible that Kupp approached his 2021 numbers in 2022 even as the rest of the Rams' offense cratered around him. The per-target efficiency took a step back, to be fair, but he averaged 10.9 targets, 8.3 catches and 90.2 yards per game with a 76.5 percent catch rate before a high-ankle sprain in mid-November cut his season short. If you exclude the game in which he suffered that injury, Kupp's 2022 numbers look even more similar to 2021, with 101.6 receiving yards per game and six TDs in eight appearances. His rehab timeline was estimated at 6-8 weeks after the season-ending surgery, and Kupp could be cleared for spring practices after he gave a positive update in January. There's not much chance of the Rams returning to their 2021 Super Bowl glory after a rough offseason marked by key losses on defense and no major additions on either side of the ball, but the offense should at least rebound to some extent if only due to the unlikelihood of suffering so many crucial injuries in one season (QB Matthew Stafford and numerous offensive linemen also failed to stay healthy in 2022). Even in the event the team-wide struggles continue, Kupp is essentially a lock for double-digit targets per game -- something that can only be said of one other wideout, Minnesota's Justin Jefferson.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be moved
The Rams are engaging with teams on a potential trade for Kupp, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Kupp has missed the last four games with an ankle injury but is expected to return for Thursday's game against the Vikings. That could be his last game in a Rams uniform, as the team appears motivated to move him. Per Diana Russini of The Athletic, Los Angeles is willing to retain some of Kupp's salary so long as they can get a future second-round pick in return.
