Los Angeles Rams To Trade Cooper Kupp

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. Still, if there’s one thing that I have learned over the years: there are so many things that are out of your control, but it is how you respond to these things that you will look back on and remember.

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. 2024 began with one of the best training camps of my career. Preparations start now for 2025. Highly motivated, as healthy as ever, and looking forward to playing elite football for years to come. Love you guys..

Kupp has long been a fan favorite and the spiritual heart and soul of the Rams. When addressing the topic head coach Sean McVay said,

“Cooper has changed my life for the better. He’s made an impact on me, most importantly, as a person. What he’s done as a player is incredibly amazing in regard to the production but also he’s been so important in terms of a lot of the things that we’ve been able to build with what he represents as a captain, the production. These things are very real and you try to say, ‘It’s business and it’s personal.’ It all blends together because this is still a relationship. I think he’s honest about the situation. I think those are the things that make it challenging.”
