According to multiple reports, including from The Athletic’s Dianna Russini, the Rams aren’t just taking calls over Kupp’s availability but are also reaching out to other teams in search of a trade partner. It’s understood that they’re even open to paying some of the wideout’s salary for the remainder of this season in a bid to get a deal over the line.
The team is reportedly keen on securing a second-round pick in exchange for Kupp, fueling the notion that they are looking for top value while also intent on freeing up cap space.
“The Rams have called multiple teams about trading former Super Bowl MVP Cooper Kupp sources tell @mikesilver, @jourdanrodrigue, and me,” Russini reported on Tuesday. “The Rams have indicated a willingness to take on some of the ‘24 salary and are seeking a 2nd round pick.”
Cooper Kupp Boasts One Of The Most Prolific Receiving Seasons In NFL History
That the Rams are looking to part ways with Cooper Ckupp perhaps shouldn’t be all that surprising given his age, 31, and his injury history.
Kupp boasts one of the most impressive receiving seasons in NFL history. His 2021 campaign was the stuff of legend, as he led the league in receptions, receiving yards, and receiving touchdowns. He registered 145 catches for 1,947 yards and 16 touchdowns that season en route to Super Bowl and Super Bowl MVP wins.
Kupp has been out with a high-ankle sprain since Week 2 and was expected to return against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 8.
Given that his future with the Rams is now in doubt, he might remain off the field until a deal gets over the line.
