After suffering through a high ankle sprain last season that caused him to miss the last 8 games of the season, Cooper Kupp is once again bitten by the injury bug. Kupp is dealing with a nagging hamstring injury he sustained in the first week of training camp and popped up again Thursday, according to Sean McVay. It remains to be seen when he will return with the season just over a week away.

This is a major blow to anyone drafting Kupp at his ADP (1.07) right now. Hamstring injuries are never a positive thing, especially for veterans like Kupp, and opens the possibility of him missing time. If that is the case, other receivers like Puka Nacua or Van Jefferson get slightly elevated, but it won’t be drastic. For Kupp, if you were drafting this weekend, it might be prudent to fade him, especially with the further injury risk. Though, if he does return to any pre ankle sprain form, then there could be some value in buying the slight dip.
