Cooper Kupp: After spending eight seasons with the Los Angeles Rams, star receiver Cooper Kupp has revealed that the team is looking to trade him—a decision he’s clearly not happy about.
Veteran receiver Cooper Kupp has dropped a bombshell, revealing that the Los Angeles Rams are trying to trade him after eight seasons—a move he’s not on board with.
Super Bowl 56 MVP Cooper Kupp took to social media on Monday to break the news, stating that the Rams have informed him they are ‘actively seeking a trade’ and will work with him and his family to find the best destination where he can continue chasing championships.
The 2021 AP NFL Offensive Player of the Year has all but said his goodbyes to the city he’s called home for his entire career.
I don’t agree with the decision—I always thought my journey would begin and end in LA,” Kupp wrote. “But if there’s one thing I’ve learned over the years, it’s that so much is out of your control. What truly matters is how you respond, because that’s what you’ll remember in the end.
Kupp’s future with the Rams had been uncertain, given that he’s under contract for two more seasons as part of a three-year, $80.1 million extension he signed after his historic 2021-22 campaign. With his cap hit nearing $30 million next season, the Rams could free up significant space by trading or releasing him with a post-June 1 designation.
Preparations for 2025 start now,” Kupp wrote. “I’m more motivated than ever, feeling as healthy as ever, and ready to play elite football for years to come. Love you all… but I’m coming for it all.
