Cooper Kupp (hamstring/wrist) looks like he will play on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams. Kupp was a question mark entering this week, but he did enough during practice to receive the go-ahead.. Unfortunately, Kupp should be overlooked as a fantasy option. The volume simply is not there for the veteran. To make matters worse, the Rams are one of the better defenses in the NFL. This does not project to necessarily be a high-volume passing game between two teams with stellar defenses. Kupp has exceeded three targets on just three occasions this season. With the addition of wide receiver Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline, Kupp figures to cede more volume in this offense. Seattle may give Kupp chances to prove to his old team that he still has what it takes in this league, but do not bank on that narrative. You are better off with Kupp on your bench this week.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp (hamstring, heel) is officially active for Sunday's Week 10 contest against the Arizona Cardinals. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction after logging a full practice on Friday. The veteran receiver is returning from a one-week absence and has been relatively underwhelming this season with 24 catches, 293 yards, and one touchdown through seven games. He and Rashid Shaheed will co-exist behind alpha receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba on Sunday afternoon.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp (hamstring, heel) has a better chance to play in Week 10 than he did last week, but his status remains up in the air, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. It appears that Kupp, who was listed as questionable, will be a true game-time decision for Sunday's contest against the Cardinals. Fantasy managers should check back for confirmation on Kupp's status when the Seahawks post their list of inactive players at 2:35 p.m. ET. Jaxon Smith-Njigba remains the No. 1 receiver in Seattle, and newcomer Rashid Shaheed would have the No. 2 receiver spot all to himself if Kupp doesn't play.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp (hamstring, heel) is expected to be active for Sunday's home tilt with the Arizona Cardinals, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Despite being listed as questionable while dealing with multiple injuries, the veteran should make his return from a one-game absence in Week 10. However, he'll be faced with more target competition, as the team added former New Orleans Saints wide receiver Rashid Shaheed at Tuesday's trade deadline. Kupp has played a clear second fiddle to running mate Jaxon Smith-Njigba in 2025, and the acquisition of Shaheed stands to dent his impact further. Look for him to stay involved while his new teammate is worked into the offense, but the 32-year-old is trending down.
Nov 9, 2025 12:14 AM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp (hamstring, heel) is trending toward playing against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 10, but he'll have a relatively low floor and ceiling in fantasy football. The 32-year-old has just 23 catches, 293 yards, and one touchdown this year, ranking as the overall WR62 in PPR leagues. His stock could drop even further as Tory Horton (shin) ascends and trade deadline acquisition Rashid Shaheed makes a quick impact. Kupp and Shaheed could share No. 2 receiver duties behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba this week, but the veteran receiver has fallen out of favor with most fantasy managers. He's an unreliable low-end WR4 against a Cardinals defense allowing the 10th-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025.
Nov 8, 2025 11:12 AM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp (hamstring, heel) is listed as questionable to play in Week 10 against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, according to Brady Henderson of ESPN. However, Kupp was a full participant in Friday's practice, so it sounds like he'll have a good chance of playing after he sat out in the Week 9 win over the Washington Commanders with hamstring and heel injuries. Meanwhile, rookie Tory Horton (shin), who had two touchdowns last week with Kupp sidelined, is listed as doubtful to play this weekend. The 32-year-old Kupp could see more targets in the passing game with Horton likely out, but newly acquired wideout Rashid Shaheed could also step in immediately to become the WR2 behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Kupp could see the field plenty this Sunday, but either way, the former third-rounder profiles as a shaky WR4/flex. The vast majority of quarterback Sam Darnold's targets are going to JSN this year, leaving Kupp with only 24 catches for 293 yards and one touchdown in seven games.
Nov 7, 2025 5:17 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp (hamstring, heel) was unable to take part in Wednesday's practice session. Earlier in the day, head coach Mike Macdonald told reporters that Kupp would be limited in practice. Instead, Kupp sat out completely, which isn't a great sign to begin the week. The 32-year-old sat out of last week's win over the Washington Commanders. There's a chance he misses the Week 10 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals as well. The Seahawks have brought in reinforcements in the form of Rashid Shaheed. That being said, Shaheed could have a bigger role right away if Kupp is unable to play this weekend. Fantasy managers will need to stay tuned throughout the week for more updates on Kupp.
Nov 5, 2025 8:09 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp (hamstring, heel) was ruled out ahead of the Week 9 matchup against the Washington Commanders on Sunday Night Football. As expected, Kupp will head to the sideline as he's dealing with multiple injuries. This is bad news for an already banged-up wideout group in Seattle. The loss of Kupp figures to mean increased roles for Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Tory Horton, and Ricky White III on Sunday. Horton could be a look as a streaming option for fantasy managers attempting to replace Kupp ahead of kickoff.
Nov 2, 2025 7:00 PM EST
Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp (heel, hamstring) is not expected to suit up for Sunday night's contest with the hosting Washington Commanders. Coming out of the team's bye, the 32-year-old was a full practice participant, though listed with a heel injury. That changed later in the week as Kupp's practice status was downgraded each of the ensuing two days. If he is eventually deemed inactive, it would further diminish Seattle's passing attack, as they'll already be without teammates Jake Bobo (Achilles) and Dareke Young (quad). In that case, Tory Horton, Cody White, and Ricky White III are the only other receivers without a designation behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
Nov 2, 2025 1:11 AM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp (heel, hamstring) is trending in the wrong direction for Sunday night's matchup against the Washington Commanders. Kupp missed Friday's practice after tweaking his hamstring, which is usually not an encouraging sign this late in the week. The 32-year-old has served a complementary role this season behind star wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba, catching 24 of his 33 targets for 293 yards and a touchdown in seven games. Kupp missed five games last season with an ankle injury and is in jeopardy of missing his first game with the Seahawks in Week 9. Kupp will test out the injury in pre-game warmups and would rank as a low-end flex option if he suits up. If he's unable to play, Tory Horton's profile is an interesting flex option against Washington's struggling secondary.
Nov 1, 2025 3:17 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp (heel, hamstring) is listed as questionable for Week 9 against the Washington Commanders after hurting his hamstring in Friday's practice, per Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. Kupp was initially dealing with just a heel injury, but he tweaked his hamstring in practice on Friday, which puts his status for Sunday night in question. The 32-year-old was listed as a full participant in practice to begin the Week on Friday, before being downgraded to limited on Thursday, and missing practice altogether on Friday. The veteran wideout will be evaluated during a pregame workout to determine his availability for Sunday Night Football against Washington. If he's unable to play, rookie Tory Horton would see an increase in routes as Seattle's WR2.
Oct 31, 2025 5:05 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp (hamstring, heel) was listed with just a heel injury on Wednesday and was a full practice participant before being downgraded to limited on Thursday, with the Seahawks adding a hamstring injury, according to Brady Henderson of ESPN. Kupp's availability for Sunday night's contest against the Washington Commanders is now in question, and he might need to return to a full practice on Friday to avoid taking a questionable designation into the weekend. If the 32-year-old veteran is out or limited at all on Sunday Night Football, rookie Tory Horton would see an uptick in playing time as Seattle's WR2 behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Although Kupp did score on Oct. 12 against the Jacksonville Jaguars -- it was his first score of the year -- he's gone over 50 receiving yards twice in his seven games in his first year in Seattle.
Oct 30, 2025 8:53 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp entered last week's bye at a low point, having caught just three passes on four targets for 72 yards in his last two games, although he did salvage it with his first touchdown reception in the Week 6 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 32-year-old veteran caught his only target for a gain of 32 yards in the Week 7 win over the Houston Texans on Monday Night Football, and he also threw an interception on a trick play. Kupp enters the Week 9 contest this Sunday night against the Washington Commanders with 24 receptions on the year for 293 yards and one touchdown on 33 targets through seven games. He'll have a good matchup against Washington's banged-up defense this week, but fantasy managers haven't been able to rely on Kupp at all in his first year in Seattle. Kupp has been a distant No. 2 behind breakout star Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the Seahawks' offense.
Oct 30, 2025 12:36 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp has struggled to consistently earn targets so far in 2025. Across seven games, the 32-year-old has recorded 24 catches for 293 yards and a touchdown on 33 targets. With Jaxon Smith-Njigba emerging as the clear WR1 in Seattle, Kupp has been forced into a secondary role. However, Kupp still holds upside depending on the Seahawks' game script. In the three games where Seattle quarterback Sam Darnold has been forced to attempt at least 30 passes, Kupp has recorded 14 catches for 181 yards on 19 targets. Coming out of their Week 8 bye, the Seahawks will face the Washington Commanders, Arizona Cardinals, and Los Angeles Rams. In fantasy leagues where Kupp may have been dropped during his bye week, he could be worth adding as a matchup-dependent flex option.
Oct 28, 2025 11:37 AM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp is not entering a friendly matchup for his fantasy football props this week. Kupp has produced when the Seahawks have needed his services. However, Seattle's defense should be able to handle the Texans' offense, leading to low volume in the Seahawks' passing game. Kupp has only cleared five targets and four receptions twice in six games this season. On both of those occasions, Seattle was playing significantly from behind at one point in the game, and the passing game was necessary to even the score. Otherwise, the Seahawks have attempted to heavily rely on the running game in 2025. Kupp is likely going to be a flex option in the right matchups this year. However, this does not project to be one of them.
Oct 17, 2025 9:04 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp has only proven to have fantasy value when Seattle's passing game exhibits high volume. Seattle's defense has a solid chance of shutting down the Jaguars' offense in Week 6, which would render Kupp an unnecessary part of the offense. Kupp has earned five or fewer targets in three of his five games this season. He can clearly still get the job done when called upon, but the Seahawks are frankly not calling upon his services often. There are plenty of other players, either on the waiver wire or potentially on your roster, that would be safer bets for consistent production in Week 6. If you need a break-glass option, Kupp could produce if the Jaguars' offense shows up. However, that is an absolute last resort scenario.
Oct 11, 2025 9:55 AM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp has entered the bench stash phase of his career. He is not a viable option in Week 5 when the Seahawks host the Buccaneers. The Buccaneers have an untested passing defense, but Kupp has been too inconsistent to this point in the season. Kupp has only surpassed 6.6 fantasy points one time this season. Additionally, the Seahawks' passing volume is low. Quarterback Sam Darnold is averaging 25 passing attempts per game, and 8.5 of those passes are going to wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Some of that has been due to game script. The offense has been relatively efficient, and the defense has been elite, resulting in a lower passing volume. If the Buccaneers' offense challenges Seattle in Week 5, the passing volume could increase. However, Kupp is too risky a player to deploy right now. He still has talent, but as of now, he is a better wide receiver for the Seahawks than he is for fantasy.
Oct 3, 2025 7:56 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp is a flex play at best in Week 4. Kupp has been difficult to project in 2025. He delivered a WR2 outing in Week 2, but has otherwise been unplayable. For context, the Seahawks' offense struggled as a whole in Week 1, found its footing in Week 2, and the defense and special teams dominated in Week 3 so much that the offense was hardly needed. If Week 4 proves to be a more competitive game in Arizona, there will be room for Kupp to provide fantasy value. The good news is that Kupp does not seem to have lost his talent. He is still very adept at getting open, and he is a great safety valve for quarterback Sam Darnold. However, with wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba entrenched as the clear No. 1 and rookie wideout Tory Horton blossoming, it may be prudent to only start Kupp in games where he will likely be essential to Seattle's success. You likely did not draft Kupp to be a starter anyway, so a wait-and-see approach is advised in Week 4.
Sep 24, 2025 9:02 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp is looking like a player who will be difficult to trust in fantasy football this season. Kupp scored 16 fantasy points on nine targets in Week 2, but he has only earned three targets in each of the Seahawks' other two games. Kupp reeled in two receptions for 31 yards in Week 3 against the New Orleans Saints despite the Seahawks scoring 44 points. With fellow wide receiver Tory Horton earning a larger role within the offense, Kupp may be up and down this season. He is a great chain-mover and veteran for quarterback Sam Darnold to trust, but his lack of consistent targets through three weeks makes him difficult to project in fantasy. He will always be a threat to earn eight to 10 targets in any given week, but it is clear that he could have a series of dud performances throughout the year as well.
Sep 22, 2025 6:17 PM EST
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp looks like a flex play in Week 3 against the New Orleans Saints. Kupp delivered in Week 2 with seven catches for 90 yards against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Kupp and quarterback Sam Darnold clearly found chemistry together after a lackluster debut in Week 1. Kupp displayed the savvy and excellent route running that allowed him to carve up zones during his days with the Los Angeles Rams. Kupp's role as Seattle's slot receiver is valuable in offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak's system. He should continue to see upwards of five-plus targets per game moving forward. Although the Seahawks may be ahead for most of the game on Sunday, Kupp will be a flex option as long as his chemistry with Darnold sticks.
