The Cooper Kupp saga has finally come to an end.
After drawing interest from multiple teams following his release from the Los Angeles Rams, Kupp is returning to his home state of Washington. The All-Pro wideout agreed to a three-year, $45 million deal with the Seattle Seahawks on Friday, thus paying him $15 million annually, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
At that price, it's no surprise that the Houston Texans elected to pass on signing the soon-to-be 32-year-old receiver entering a crucial offseason in the franchise's tenure. Houston, who did secure a wide receiver with the trade for Jacksonville's Christian Kirk, had interest in Kupp because of his connection with new offensive coordinator Nick Caley, but was never going to meet the asking price for a trade.
