Cooper Kupp is getting an extra look at his hamstring a weekend before the NFL season kicks off.<\/p>\n

The star Rams wide receiver is in Minnesota today visiting with a body specialist to further understand the root of his injury, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported, per sources.<\/p>\n

Kupp first suffered the hamstring injury in a practice on Aug. 1, when he pulled up during a route and left the session. The Rams described him as day to day, but the All-Pro then closed August with a setback.<\/p>\n

Although Rams head coach Sean McVay again characterized Kupp as day to day following the subsequent hamstring issue, it is unclear whether or not the WR will be able to return for Los Angeles’ Week 1 opener against the Seahawks.<\/p>\n

Rapoport also reported that exercising caution for that matchup is the likely outcome — but he mentioned there remains no firm word on his status.<\/p>\n
