Once the dust settled on the 2021 Los Angeles Rams season, it was clear that wide receiver Cooper Kupp had finally ascended to superstardom. In reality, LA fans knew it would only be a matter of time before the media gave the Eastern Washington product his due. After missing out on the Super Bowl in the 2018 campaign, Kupp was determined not to let another Lombardi Trophy slip from his fingertips.
Kupp’s breathtaking ‘21 is considered one of the best, if not the best season by a receiver in NFL history. That dream turned into a nightmare the following year when Kupp missed the final eight games with an ankle injury, denying LA a chance to win back-to-back titles.
