One of the biggest revelations last season was Dan Quinn’s Washington Commanders. Backed by one of the best rookies in recent years, Jayden Daniels, they made a strong push last year in the NFL, falling just short of the Super Bowl. To replicate that success, the team is looking to add a former Vince Lombardi Trophy champion for what’s ahead.

Cooper Kupp is likely to be one of the most sought-after players in the upcoming free agency. According to reports, the Commanders are interested in adding him to their roster to give Daniels a new weapon on offense.

The news was mentioned by NFL insider Jeremy Fowler, who, during an appearance on SportsCenter, reported the potential arrival of Kupp to Washington to add depth to Quinn’s offense.

“Talking to people around the league, he [Kupp] will have a market because he’s so quarterback friendly … certainly Washington is looking for a complimentary No. 2 receiver,” Fowler stated.

With a stellar performance from Cooper Kupp and led by Matthew Stafford, the Rams secured the victory with a tight score of 23-20.

Kupp is already aware that the Rams want to trade him

At the beginning of February, Cooper Kupp was informed by the franchise that he would no longer be part of the Rams roster starting this season. In a heartfelt message through his X account @CooperKupp, the wide receiver bid farewell to the fans.

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.. But coming for it all.
