Cooper Kupp Downgraded to Limited on Thursday With Multiple Injuries

Thursday, October 30, 8:53 PM

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.

Rashid Shaheed Logs Limited Practice Session

Wednesday, October 29, 9:55 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Rashid Shaheed (hip) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. It appears that Shaheed picked up a hip injury during last weekend's loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 27-year-old hauled in a season-high nine receptions on 12 targets for 75 yards in the defeat. This was a nice performance for Shaheed who has been held in check recently. It doesn't sound like this hip issue should hold him out in Week 9, but fantasy managers should check back on Thursday and Friday. If active, Shaheed should be considered a flex option for the Week 9 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams.
