Though its not what he wanted, Cooper Kupp is on the move.
The Los Angeles Rams officially released Cooper Kupp on Wednesday, after originally looking for a trade partner for the wide receiver. A deal never materialized, so the Rams instead opted to simply move on.
Link to tweet
Kupp, who has spent his entire eight-year career with the Rams, is now a free agent. A month after flagging that the Rams were looking to trade him, the receiver took the time to say goodbye to L.A. on social media.
"Eight years of incredible memories," Kupp wrote, alongside a video showing his timeline with the team. "Thank you for these shared moments. Thank you LA for welcoming my family with open arms and allowing us to grow here.

his injury in 2023 sunk them. He played 9 that year and 12 each of the last two.
Not sure about his contract timeline. Nacau was a find in the fifth round and I think is still in his rookie contract.

I have to say I am having a real hard time worrying about millionaire athletes and their comings and goings right now.

anyone who finds that distasteful should stay away.
