Cooper Kupp Joins Seattle Seahawks in $45 Million Deal After Rams Release

The former Super Bowl MVP embraces a homecoming to Washington and prepares for a new chapter following an emotional departure from the Rams.

Cooper Kupp signed a three-year, $45 million contract with the Seattle Seahawks after being released by the Los Angeles Rams earlier this month.
Kupp described leaving the Rams, where he spent eight seasons, as 'difficult and frustrating,' but expressed gratitude for his time with the team.
The Seahawks signed Kupp as part of a roster overhaul following the departures of DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, with Kupp set to play a key role alongside Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
Kupp called the move to Seattle a 'full-circle moment,' reflecting on his Washington roots and childhood memories of watching the Seahawks.
Despite injuries limiting his production in recent seasons, Kupp emphasized his focus on being his best self and not proving critics wrong.
