Cooper Kupp has found a new home. And it’s a place he’s very familiar with.
According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, Kupp is signing with the Seattle Seahawks. Kupp is a native of Yakima, Washington and Eastern Washington Alum. He’ll now head to Seattle where he’ll face his former team, the Los Angeles Rams, twice this season.
Kupp’s deal with the Seahawks is a three-year, $45 million deal.
Kupp was released by the Los Angeles Rams at the start of the new league year Wednesday, ending his eight-season run with the team.
He joined the Rams as a third-round pick in 2017 out of Eastern Washington, as part of Sean McVay’s first draft class, and emerged as one of the game’s best pass-catchers from the slot in the years since.
He had 62 receptions as a rookie, then topped 90 in both his third and fourth seasons.
But his best season came in 2021, when he won the receiving triple crown by leading the NFL in receptions (145), receiving yards (1,947) and receiving touchdowns (16). He made his only Pro Bowl and was named the NFL’s Offensive Player of the Year.
