Cooper Kupp and Jonah Jackson out for a longer period

When it rains, it pours, and the Rams are currently experiencing a spate of injuries.

Rams head coach Sean McVay said wide receiver Cooper Kupp and left guard Jonah Jackson will both be out for extended periods after suffering injuries in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals. Kupp injured his ankle and Jackson aggravated a shoulder injury.

McVay also confirmed that safety John Johnson will be out for several weeks with a shoulder injury. He named all three players as candidates for the injured list.

The Rams already have wide receiver Puka Nacua, cornerback Darious Williams, tackle Joe Noteboom and guard/center Steve Avila on their roster, so they will be missing a large portion of their roster for the near future.

This condition will make it difficult for the Rams to find their way back to the playoffs this season, and the 0-2 team will have to rush to fill all of their holes in time to face the 49ers in week four.
