The offseason is a process that starts with teams deciding which players have to stay, which then allows the front office and coaching staff to come to terms with those who didn’t make the cut. Or they get cut.
The first step of the L.A. Rams offseason will be cutting and trading players who are either not vital components of a successful 2025 season, or they have contracts that now outweigh their value too dramatically to keep. That means that 2024 was probably Cooper Kupp’s last season with the Rams.

As noted this week, Kupp is likely not tradeable anymore because no team will willingly pay him $20 million in cash for 2025 and also give up draft picks.
