Early Monday morning, NFL insider Ian Rapoport went on Good Morning Football to discuss the Rams’ recent injuries to their key players, including defensive tackle Aaron Donald and wide receiver Cooper Kupp. Per Rapoport, the expectation is that Donald is expected to play through what was diagnosed as “torn rib cartilage”.
