The former Eastern Washington star had seven receptions for 115 yards and a touchdown to lead the Rams to a 38-22 victory at Houston on Sunday.

His 11-yard touchdown catch midway through the third quarter gave L.A. a 31-0 lead.

Kupp leads the NFL in receptions (63), yards (924) and touchdowns (10). Targeted a league-high 90 times, he also tops the league in catches of 20 yards or more (15) and receptions resulting in a first down (41).
