Cooper Kupp On Playing Consecutive Games On Turf: 'I Hate It'

Dec 20, 2023 8:58 AM

The Los Angeles Rams play home games at SoFi Stadium, which features fake grass.

"As you know, I hate it," Kupp said Tuesday when asked about the Sunday-Thursday two-game run. "I'm not a fan of turf in general and it's obviously tough going back-to-back on a short week. But it is what it is. I know people are certainly aware of it. If there’s going to be change that’s going to come, it’s not because people don’t know, you know? So it is what it’s. Like I said, it’s the same thing about playing Thursday night. Everyone’s got to do it. Everyone’s got to get it done on turf and just part of this game and you got to deal with it."

After hosting the Washington Commanders on Sunday, they will play the New Orleans Saints on Thursday.

The Cleveland Browns will start their fourth different quarterback this season, as veteran passer Joe Flacco will take over Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams.
