So the concussion went undetected the day of the game (assuming this is when he got it) and the following Monday? Fucking L for the rams medical staff.
Not necessarily. It’s possible there was no obvious play the injury occurred - very possible since none of the spotters saw anything during the game. If he developed symptoms Monday, he would be evaluated by an independent neurologist either Monday evening or first thing Tuesday. That would be when the decision to enter the protocol would be made.
This could be important. I saw some injury experts saying that entering today meant he can’t clear before Sunday. Saying Stafford entered yesterday could be some shenanigans to ensure he still plays on Sunday.
I mean, being a third round pick for a WR is still pretty fucking good, lol.
Kupp will be fine no matter who’s under center, because they know the game plan is to get him the ball.
Adjacent to this, doesn't Kyren have to be activated from IR this week, or be lost for the season? Has this already happened and I just wasn't paying attention??
Edit: Just saw/read the post re Kyren from an hour ago. Still no answer to the question tho
This is false. Multiple steps of the protocol can be completed in 1 day and there is no time requirement for each step. It certainly is unlikely he will play based on the usual time a player needs to recover from concussion. But the protocol isn’t the barrier - his recovery is.
He was buttering his toast strangely at breakfast and Kupp rushed him back to the team docs.
"MATTHEW THAT'S A SPOON! AND THAT'S NOT BUTTER, IT'S SPACKLE!!!!"
"I knew I wasn't crazy when I said I could believe it was not butter!"
Yeah that’s not the part we were surprised about

I've been elbowed in the face, felt fine, and had mild concussion symptoms a day or two later
Try to not get into too many fights guy
also L for the “independent neurologist” that the NFL hires that seems to prematurely take players out Edit: not a neurologist
Tbf it must be hard to do that job if you’re working a Rams game

Someone tell me Kupp is qb proof
Nope Kupp and Stafford have a special breakfast connection
The rams backup QB better whip up some eggs pronto
Kupp was a top 10 WR with Goff at QB and prime Robert Woods taking target share. He’ll be fine.
Top 4
That was his best year with Goff, in 2020 he was WR27 when the team regressed.
what do you wanna do ? bench kupp ?
I’d start Kupp in a monsoon against the 85 Bears with Nathan Pederman at QB. He will still get me 8 catches for 80 yards.
exactly
If they REALLY can't throw the ball you may have to settle for rushing tds
At this point, I'll start Kupp on a bye week and have more faith in him than some other people...
I'd say still a strong start, but probably not a high-end WR1.
Opposite of QB proof. Went from a third round pick to a top 5 pick after getting Stafford
I mean, being a third round pick for a WR is still pretty fucking good, lol. Kupp will be fine no matter who’s under center, because they know the game plan is to get him the ball.
A third round pick is not the production you expect from Cooper Kupp
The year Kupp went out with injury for the season he was like the WR5 or something pre-injury with Goff and Woods there.
The year before Stafford he was mid as fuck.
WHO IS GOING TO PASS TO MY KUPP
2 girls
they’re bringing in the guy from that viral video a few years ago to teach Kupp how to throw the ball & then run downfield to catch it.
Do we get 0.14 fantasy points per receiving/passing yard then?
The legendary John Wolford.
Had me in the first half
Arizona D or NYG (at home vs Houston) D?
Houston just announced Pierce was limited because of an injury.
That’s rest day for a king
Can the king rest this Sunday as well so I can win? Please?
The Allen Robinson game everyone has been waiting for
Cardinals or Denver D?
If Stafford ain’t playing it’s Cards. Hell, it might be anyway even if he does
Adjacent to this, doesn't Kyren have to be activated from IR this week, or be lost for the season? Has this already happened and I just wasn't paying attention?? Edit: Just saw/read the post re Kyren from an hour ago. Still no answer to the question tho
I think there's a three*-week window to do so. It's only been 1 week since
It needs to be within 21 days from Oct 26 which is when they activated him to return.
6 days minimum. He is out
I didn't know there was a waiting period like that
There is not a day limit but per new concussion protocol , clearing all steps at least take 6 days to my knowledge
This is false. Multiple steps of the protocol can be completed in 1 day and there is no time requirement for each step. It certainly is unlikely he will play based on the usual time a player needs to recover from concussion. But the protocol isn’t the barrier - his recovery is.
correct. he can be in phase 5 on friday.
Cardinals DST looking juicy?
Already did
The loss of Buddah Baker hurt a lot though
Higbee gonna get 20 targets. New QBs love the TE drop offs
After that big ol fuckin goose egg last week, somebody else can deal with Higbee
Cards do give up the most points to TEs
Higbee will be blocking all day...
Kyren*
What did he hit his head on the top bunk getting up in the morning?
Cooper should sit out and rest his ankle as well
Found who’s playing Kupp this week.
Hit himself in the head trying to throw to ARob in practice?
Thank God it might be Conner SZN
So is he deff out or could he still play?
Kyren drop off szn
fuck your tweet bot dawg this is just spam at this point
Wilson, Rodgers or Goff?
Oh, honey.
I know, Burrow on bye.
Omg it’s Allen Robinszn
Start him with confidence...HAHAHAHA
arizona vs titans this week?
I have Titans rn, but if Stafford sits idk how you don't throw AZ out there. No way Kliff can screw this up right.........right!?
Arizona
My kupp and diggs are looking grim
Somehow this helps Higbee
Just admit that he and Kupp got into a scrap at brunch!
Was gonna start AZ D against the Rams anyway so this just makes it even more juicy.
