Cooper Kupp is breaking his own trade rumors, and Baltimore should be first in line to call the Rams and gauge their asking price. The Ravens have an excellent passing attack but only have Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman as experienced pass catchers under contract.

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.

According to Over the Cap, If Kupp is traded, his new team would inherit his $20 million salary in 2025 ($7.5M roster bonus + $12.5M base) and $19.85M in 2026—unless his contract is renegotiated.
Kupp was the No. 69 pick by the Rams in 2017.
During his tenure with the Rams, Kupp has totaled 634 catches for 7,776 yards and 57 touchdowns, winning Offensive Player of the Year and Super Bowl MVP in 2021.
