8. Kupp officially crosses 1,000-yard receiving mark for 2019

As crazy as it sounds, Cooper Kupp could officially set new career highs across the board for the Los Angeles Rams after Sunday’s meeting with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the best part is he will still have seven games to go.

Losing Kupp in the middle of last season to a torn ACL was a crushing blow for the Rams on offense when looking at how quickly he’s become a favorite target to Jared Goff over the years.

And while there were some slight concerns over how Kupp would look once he returned in September, the wideout has looked stronger than ever this season.

Through eight games, Kupp already has 58 catches for 792 yards to go along with five touchdown, and while the Steelers’ defense will be a tough challenge as always, the Rams wideout will be well rested after the bye week.

In order to officially cross the 1,000-yard receiving mark on the season, Kupp would need to finish with at least 208 receiving yards against Pittsburgh.

This may sound like a bit of a stretch, but also keep in mind that Kupp is coming off a game against the Cincinnati Bengals in which he finished with 220 receiving yards.
