Ex-Rams star Cooper Kupp signing with rival Seahawks on $45 million contract in NFL bombshell

Cooper Kupp is staying in the NFC West but heading north.

The ex-Rams star is signing a three-year contract worth $45 million with the Seahawks, according to multiple reports.

Kupp is a Yakima, Wash., native and attended Eastern Washington, so this move is a homecoming for the 2021 All-Pro wideout.

Kupp fills the void at wideout for the Seahawks after they traded DK Metcalf to the Steelers on Sunday.

The 31-year-old joins a new-look offense that will see Sam Darnold take the reins under center.
