Cooper Kupp’s pesky hamstring issue seems to be getting more complicated by the week.<\/p>\n

First things first: Kupp will not play in Los Angeles’ season opener against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, Rams coach Sean McVay announced Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The news is undoubtedly disappointing for the Rams, but that’s not the only concern on their minds: Los Angeles hasn’t quite figured out the source of Kupp’s hamstring discomfort.<\/p>\n

“It wasn’t the normal thing. There’s just a lot of gray behind this,” McVay said of Kupp’s injury. “I’m not a doctor, so I can’t really answer anything more about that. I just know it doesn’t follow the standard protocol for when you’re reaggravating a soft-tissue injury. (We are) trying to continue to get a grasp on exactly what it is so he can get back to feeling like the Cooper that we know and love. Hopefully, we’ll do that.”<\/p>\n
