BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2
ANALYSIS: Since he is healthy to play, the wise move is always to start Cooper Kupp.
The Los Angeles Rams wide receiver suffered another ankle injury in last week's game against the Seattle Seahawks. He only played 27% of the Rams' offensive snaps before getting hurt, but fortunately for all fantasy managers who have him, he will play in Week 12.
The Rams are 4-6 heading into the Week 12 game against the Arizona Cardinals and are still in the playoff race. Despite his ankle not being 100%, Kupp will be determined to help his team record another crucial win. He has played only six games this season, accumulating 24 receptions for 375 yards, and has scored just one touchdown.
However, throughout his career, Kupp has been exceptional against the Cardinals. In 11 games against them, the Rams wideout has 68 receptions for 797 yards with six touchdowns on 95 targets. The Cardinals are giving up an average of 25.8 points and 217.5 passing yards per game this season.
In their previous game, the Cardinals allowed Tank Dell to have eight receptions for 149 yards and a touchdown. We can expect Matthew Stafford to get the ball to his two playmakers, i.e. Kupp and Puka Nacua, to win the game.
