LOS ANGELES -- Since Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp sprained his ankle in Week 2, head coach Sean McVay has been clear that he didn't want to place "any sort of expectations" on the receiver for a timeline to return.
Before the Rams' Week 6 bye, McVay said the team's "optimistic target date" for a possible Kupp return was Week 7 against the Las Vegas Raiders (4:05 p.m. ET, CBS), "but by no means is that guaranteed."
Now that Week 7 approaches and Kupp has returned to practice, the Rams are weighing whether their hope for a return to the field can come true on Sunday.
