Cooper Kupp does not trouble.
After studies surfaced earlier within the day that the Los Angeles Rams are actively attempting to show round their main franchise, Kupp responded in true Kupp vogue.
With nothing however class.
“I am conscious of it, however on the finish of the day I will be the place my toes are,” Kupp informed the media.
“That is all I do know. I’ve a job to do right here.
“I am very proud to provide every part I can for the fellows on this constructing and to have the ability to go on the sector realizing that I’ve ready one of the best I can.
“For seven and a half years I’ve been an LA Ram and I’ve taken that strategy on daily basis.
“No matter occurs exterior of that, I’ve to regulate what I can management.
“Proper now which means being one of the best LA Ram you could be.”
His feedback come after Diana Russini broke the information that the Rams had been calling groups to commerce their huge receiver.
Russini posted the next on X:
“The Rams have known as a number of groups to commerce former Tremendous Bowl MVP Cooper Kupp, sources inform @mikesilver, @jourdanrodrigue and me. The Rams have indicated a willingness to tackle a part of the ’24’s wage and are searching for a decide second spherical”.
Kupp was drafted by the Rams within the third spherical out of Japanese Washington in 2017.
Since then, he has develop into probably the greatest and most impactful gamers in Ram franchise historical past.
Tremendous Bowl MVP, All-Professional, OPOY, Professional-Bowler, Triple Crown winner, Kupp actually did all of it for Los Angeles.
And even now, amid awkward industrial murmurs, he handles all of it with class, which, in fact, isn’t any shock.
That is who Kupp has all the time been from the second he set foot in Los Angeles and, frankly, even earlier than his days in Japanese Washington.
Sadly, that is a part of the NFL enterprise and the Rams seem like in promoting mode.
The Rams are off to a 2-4 begin, largely as a result of key accidents on either side of the ball, together with Kupp, who suffered a sprained ankle in Week 2 and hasn’t returned since.
Nevertheless, if Kupp joins the Rams on Thursday evening after they play the Minnesota Vikings, all indicators level to his return.
If Los Angeles decides to commerce Kupp, it would put an finish to the dynamic pairing and chemistry he shared along with his quarterback, Matthew Stafford.
When these two are on, few are higher.
Now Kupp should wait and see what the longer term holds, however within the meantime, he’ll simply be “the place his toes are.”
