The Los Angeles Rams aren't placing wide receiver Cooper Kupp on injured reserve as he deals with a left ankle sprain, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

An IR designation would require Kupp to miss a minimum of four games before he could be activated again. By declining that option, the Rams are signaling their confidence in having him back within the next four weeks.

This article will be updated soon to provide more information and analysis.
