The New England Patriots have their latest wideout target available on a silver platter in free agency: Cooper Kupp.
Kupp, who spent eight seasons with the Los Angeles Rams, was released by the organization on Wednesday. The initial plan was for Los Angeles to find a trade suitor, but with that plan presumably failed, the Rams pivoted and parted ways with the Super Bowl LVI MVP. For the first time in Kupp’s career, he’ll sport a different uniform and, among the candidates in need of a wideout upgrade, stand the Patriots.
New England failed time and time again, tossing its interest cap toward wide receivers DeAndre Hopkins, Calvin Ridley and Chris Godwin — who signed a three-year deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this offseason.
