Agent's Take: Cooper Kupp trade ramifications as Rams prepare to cut ties with former Super Bowl MVP WR

What can the Rams expect to receive by dealing 31-year-old receiver?

Cooper Kupp is going to be in a different uniform next season. The wide receiver revealed on Feb. 3 that the Los Angeles Rams put him on the trading block. The Rams reportedly aren't interested in reworking Kupp's contract to keep him around. Puka Nacua has clearly emerged as the Rams' primary receiving option.

The desire to move on from Kupp shouldn't be a surprise. There were rumors of Kupp being available in a trade early last season. The trade speculation ended as the Rams rebounded from a 1-4 start.

Kupp has two years worth $39.58 million remaining on the three-year, $80.35 million contract extension, averaging $26,783,333 per year, he signed in June 2022. His contract needed to be addressed after a 2021 season in which he became the first player to win the receiving triple crown since Steve Smith in 2005 by simultaneously leading the league in receptions (145), receiving yards (1,947) and receiving touchdowns (16).
