Back available for club play
Cupps is back available for Chicago Fire as he was included on the bench for Thursday's 2-0 Leagues Cup win over Necaxa, according to the club.
Analysis: Cupps had been away with the USMNT U19 side for the CONCACAF U20 Championship, an absence that was not expected to have much fantasy impact given his limited role for the first team. His return now puts him back in contention for minutes, though his path back into regular playing time will depend on how the club chooses to use him over the coming weeks.
Out on international duty
Cupps is out for the time being since he's part of the USMNT U19 side for the 2026 CONCACAF U20 Championship.
Analysis: Cupps' absence won't have a big impact in fantasy since he rarely plays for the first time. He'll be with the USMNT youth side until Aug. 9 if the team reaches the final, meaning the earliest he'd return in that case would be against Portland on Sunday, Aug. 16.
