Kupp

•

Kupp was on top of the fantasy football world in 2021, delivering one of the best seasons ever by a wide receiver. In 2022, he continued to lead the league in fantasy points per game but an ankle sprain cost him the second half of the season. In 2023, Kupp suffered a hamstring strain in early August, causing him to miss the first four weeks of the season. Later in the season, he sprained his ankle but played through the injury.

The Rams star had an inconsistent 2023 season, with some incredibly hot weeks and others where he struggled. He recorded four games with 110 or more receiving yards, three games with between 39 and 52 yards and six games under 30 yards, including the playoffs. This resulted in him finishing as a top-five fantasy wide receiver in three weeks but also placing outside the top 60 in four weeks.

Kupp is capable of a top-10 season if last season's performance is attributed to injuries and if Puka Nacua experiences a sophomore slump. However, it's also possible that Kupp doesn't rebound this season, which could make him a bench candidate more often than not. His ADP is currently closer to his ceiling than his floor, making him a risky pick. He is a better option in DFS and Best Ball formats than in redraft leagues.
