The Los Angeles Rams won’t have Cooper Kupp against the Green Bay Packers.

Cooper Kupp is out with a knee injury for the Rams playoff game against Aaron Rodgers and the Packers.

This is a big blow to Jared Goff who has struggled mightily in cold weather and they’re also big underdogs against the Packers in frigid Lambeau Field.

Kupp had 92 receptions for 974 yards and three touchdowns in 2020, which included three 100-yard games.

Rams go without Cooper Kupp vs. Packers

Now, they’ll have to go forward with their upset bid without one of Goff’s most dependable targets.

Kupp was injured late in the win against the Seattle Seahawks last week with what looked like a potential ACL injury. The hope for the Rams is that if they can upset Rodgers and the Packers is that he may be able to return for the NFC Championship Game against the winner of the Saints/Buccaneers game.

Of course, first things first and the Rams need to take care of business against the Packers.

This puts Robert Woods and the rushing attack led by rookie Cam Akers to pick up the slack against the Packers as Goff looks for his first win in freezing temperatures.
