LOS ANGELES — (AP) — Los Angeles Rams receiver Cooper Kupp will have surgery on his sprained right ankle, sidelining the Super Bowl MVP for at least the next four weeks while placed on injured reserve. Kupp, the AP's Offensive Player of the Year last season after winning the triple crown of receiving, sprained his ankle in the Rams' 27-17 loss to Arizona last Sunday. He needs surgery that is likely to sideline the Rams' top offensive player for several weeks. Kupp currently is second in the NFL with 75 catches, while his 812 yards receiving and six TD receptions are fifth. The Rams (3-6) will have their 10th different starting combination in 10 games on the offensive line when they visit New Orleans on Sunday.
