The Rams have spoken with teams about a potential trade involving star wide receiver Cooper Kupp, league sources said.
Sources with knowledge of those conversations said the Rams indicated to them that they would be open to taking on some of Kupp’s remaining salary in 2024. Kupp’s base salary entering the season was $15 million with a cap number of $29 million. He also is due a $7.5 million roster bonus in March, according to Over the Cap, with $5 million guaranteed. Those sources added that the Rams indicated to them they were seeking a second-round pick.
Trade conversations began between the Rams and other teams earlier this fall, league sources said.
Kupp spoke with reporters Tuesday about the trade talk, saying: “I’m aware of it, but at the end of the day I’m gonna be where my feet are. That’s all I know. I have a job to do here. I take a lot of pride in giving everything I can for the guys in this.”
