The Rams get nothing for Coop P.
Los Angeles floated a star wide receiver in the trade market but released a former Pro Bowler on Wednesday after failing to find a suitable trading partner.
Kupp was a huge hit in 2025, at $29.78 million. This is a very challenging number to fit into the space available to other teams.
The 31-year-old, who suffered numerous injuries over the past three seasons, is expected to have a robust free agency market.
The Cup seemed upbeat throughout the final season with the Rams as budding star Puka Naqua took the reins as a preferred option for quarterback Matthew Stafford.
Among the potential teams looking for a wide range of receivers who could still have the cap space to take him in are the Denver Broncos and Detroit Lions.
Washington was previously expected to join the mix, but Devo Samuel's deal could likely take them off Kupp's running.
Another interesting option is the Kansas City Chiefs. The Kansas City Chiefs just created cap space by restructuring the Patrick Mahome and Chris Jones deal.
Kupp heads into the veteran talent-filled free agent market, fresh from a season that posted 710 receiving yards and six touchdowns at 67 receptions.
Stefon Diggs, Amari Cooper, Keenan Allen, Tyler Lockett and Brandin Cooks remain available, with things like Deandre Hopkins returning to the Giants with Ravens and Darius Slayton in a three-year, three-year, $36 million deal.
Davante Adams, Kupp's replacement in LA, has secured a two-year contract worth $46 million.
