Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp returned to Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos after halftime despite being carted off with a knee injury in the second quarter.

The second-year receiver stayed on the field for several minutes after being dragged down by Broncos safety Darian Stewart, who was penalized for a horse-collar tackle.

Kupp has been an instrumental part of the Rams' offense this season, recording 30 catches for 438 yards and five touchdowns prior to Sunday's game.

He also suffered a concussion last Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks, but was cleared in time for the matchup with Denver.

Receiver Josh Reynolds took increased snaps in Kupp's absence.
