Cooper Kupp makes feelings known on Rams seeking trade partner to move off Super Bowl-winning WR

After eight years with the franchise, Cooper Kupp is being shopped around by the LA Rams. The veteran wide receiver could make an impact on the Los Angeles team, even securing Super Bowl MVP honors three years ago, but his time at SoFi Stadium is coming to an end after the team decided to seek trades.

The player took to X (formerly Twitter) to reveal the team's plans for the future. While he doesn't agree with the Rams' decision, Kupp added a touching message thanking the fans and the city for all the memories during these eight years.

"I was informed that the team will be seeking a trade immediately and will be working with me and my family to find the right place to continue competing for championships. I don’t agree with the decision and always believed it was going to begin and end in LA," he started.

"I have taken so much pride in playing alongside my teammates for the LA community, so thank you for embracing my family and making this such a special place for us," Kupp added.

Cooper Kupp played 104 games with the LA Rams, recording 634 receptions for 7,776 receiving yards and 57 receiving touchdowns. His injuries never allowed him to be as consistent as desired, and now his tenure is about to end for a team with a clear WR1 in Puka Nacua.

At 31, Cooper Kupp isn't the same talent he used to be, but the former Eastern Washington standout can still make an impact wherever he lands this offseason. So much so that Bleacher Report's Maurice Moton proposed a trade in January that would send Kupp to the Washington Commanders in exchange for their third- and seventh-round picks in the 2025 NFL draft.

Kupp finished his tenure with the Rams as a one-time Pro-Bowler, one-time All-Pro, the 2021 Pro Football Writers Association Offensive Player of the Year and the AP Offensive Player of the Year the same year. The veteran is on the market now and probably has plenty of suitors to acquire his services.

Besides the Commanders, other squads looking to add depth to the wide receiver room like the New England Patriots or the Pittsburgh Steelers could also be interesting options for Cooper Kupp.
