Cooper Kupp immediately became a fan favorite in L.A. when he was selected by the Rams in the third round of the 2017 draft. He was viewed as a steal at that point in the draft and by every measure, he’s proved that sentiment right.
In 23 career games, he already has 102 catches for 1,435 yards and 11 touchdowns. Those numbers are even more impressive when considering he missed half the 2018 season with a knee injury, tearing his ACL in Week 10 against the Seahawks. It was a significant blow to the Rams offense and his absence was felt in their Super Bowl LIII loss.
He’s currently rehabbing his surgically repaired knee and is on track to be ready for training camp. In the premiere of “Behind the Grind” Season 2 – the Rams’ mini-docuseries – we get a behind-the-scenes look at Kupp’s rehab.
The episode also looks back at the Rams’ postseason run to the Super Bowl, the hiring of Wade Phillips’ son, Wes, as their tight ends coach, all the happenings from the NFL combine and more.
Additionally, there are some flashbacks to Sean McVay’s high school days with interviews from friends and his former head coach.
