While the Seattle Seahawks look like they could prove themselves to be one of the best teams in the NFL in 2023, injuries are still a problem.

Losing stars like Jamal Adams for any length of time will hurt, but the good news for the Seahawks is that their important players are mostly intact for what should be a run at winning the division.

The same can't be said for the Rams given their potential to lose Cooper Kupp, arguably their second-most important player.

Kupp has looked like a question mark over the past month or so, and recent news from Ian Rapoport shows the Rams should be very nervous, especially for the start of their season.

A healthy Week 1 Tweet just doesn't seem likely to follow something like this. It could, but it sure doesn't seem likely.

For a betting man, it sure seems like the Rams will be without their best offensive player during the first week of the season, and the Seahawks won't complain about that for a bit.

An easy game looks like it just got that much easier for Seattle.
