Whoever wants to sign veteran WR Cooper Kupp might have to open their wallets more than they expected. According to the Boston Sports Journal’s Mike Giardi, Kupp’s asking price is “insane” relative to his level of play, a 32-year-old receiver who had no trade market and has struggled to stay healthy.

Giardi also notes Kupp’s “preference” is to play on the West Coast, though he’s keeping all options up.

A league source tells me Kupp's asking price is "insane" compared to where he is at this point in his career. https://t.co/mgzc7FdIU0

If both are true, it greatly reduces already low odds of Pittsburgh making a run at him.
