The Los Angeles Rams have had a lot of injuries this season, and two of their best players were listed as doubtful as per the first injury report.
The Rams’ defensive tackle Aaron Donald and wide receiver Cooper Kupp landed on the injury list due to foot injuries and were unable to participate in Wednesday’s practice. They both strained their feet.
Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reported that, players including Cooper Kupp, Aaron Donald, Tyler Higbee, and Brandon Powell will be constrained in practice this week due to multiple injuries. That they were all away from Wednesday’s practice shouldn’t have constituted much of a shock. The NFL universe turned up to Twitter to express their concern about the latest injury report.
“Stafford gone use his PTO if Kupp and Higbee out,” one fan wrote.
“If we play without Kupp and AD , Sunday will be rough!!!!” another said.
“They’re gonna win anyway there playing carolina who is starting pj walker,” another added.

It’s not rare for clubs to give their veteran players like Kupp and Donald a day off. Since the Rams want to keep their starting lineup intact at all costs, it will be an unfortunate day for them to lose both Kupp and Donald on the same occasion.
Furthermore, it is possible that Kupp and Donald are battling with serious foot ailments. McVay hasn’t revealed the depth of their injury yet. They will be missing Sunday’s game against the Carolina Panthers. The injuries they sustained will affect their practice designations throughout the week.
Despite the fact that Kupp and his mate Donald skipped the first day of practice this week, it doesn’t seem to be a problem that will prevent them from participating in Week 6.
