The 49ers will still have to play Cooper Kupp twice a year

If San Francisco 49ers fans thought they were getting rid of Cooper Kupp, think again.

The Pro Bowl wide receiver is staying in the NFC West, instead going to play for the Seattle Seahawks on a three-year, $45 million deal.

Kupp is a Yakima, Washington native and attended Eastern Washington, so he’ll be playing for his hometown team, which seemingly played a factor in his decision.

The 31-year-old wideout is the latest addition this offseason for the Seahawks, joining quarterback Sam Darnold, defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence, and wide receiver Marquez Valdez-Scantling, among others.
