Cooper Kupp’s time with the Los Angeles Rams has officially come to an end after the team informed him he will be traded. After eight seasons with the franchise, his story in LA is over—but before leaving, he made sure to send a strong message making his frustration with the decision clear.
The Rams wide receiver did not hold back, expressing his disagreement with the move. Kupp posted on X, “I don’t agree with the decision and always believed it was going to begin and end in LA.” While he acknowledged that decisions like this are out of his control, he made it clear he knows how to handle these situations.
Kupp, who joined the Rams in 2018, emphasized how much the team and city meant to him. “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.” Despite a down year in 2024, he noted that his offseason preparation had been going well.
As a veteran and Super Bowl champion, Kupp is ready to move forward. “Preparations start now for 2025. Highly motivated, as healthy as ever, and looking forward to playing elite football for years to come.” He closed his message with a heartfelt farewell to his Rams teammates, writing, “Love you guys…”
Kupp’s Last Season with the Rams
In his final NFL year with the Rams, Kupp was available for only 12 games. He had confessed that he was hopeful things would improve. He recorded 710 receiving yards, the lowest since 2021 when he won a Super Bowl ring and posted 1,947 yards as a receiver with 16 touchdowns, which remain his highest numbers to date. In his last season, he managed to score just 6 touchdowns on 67 of 100 passes he caught.

With Kupp’s imminent departure, the Rams will be looking for the ideal offer to get the most benefit for the 31-year-old receiver. With his experience, he could join a team with a talented young quarterback, like the Commanders with Jayden Daniels, who need someone who knows what it’s like to play in the postseason and win a ring.
