On Monday afternoon, Cooper Kupp announced over social media that the Los Angeles Rams plan to “seek a trade immediately.” Nothing about the news is overly shocking considering all the rumors floating about, but disheartening nonetheless to see how the Rams are treating the star wideout. It’s hard not to feel like Kupp deserves better from the only team he’s ever known.
I must acknowledge that I agree with the Rams’ decision to trade Kupp. Since his record-breaking 2021 campaign, he has missed 16 games due to injury. Again, I’m behind the decision; I disagree with how it’s being handled, so Kupp has every reason to be miffed.
