Super Bowl 2022: Rams' Cooper Kupp at mountain top after winning Super Bowl MVP: 'I don’t know what to say'
Fox News contributor and sportscaster Jim Gray discusses Tom Brady’s retirement and gives his prediction for Super Bowl LVI.
Cooper Kupp is at the mountain top of wide receivers in the NFL.
After an incredible performance in Super Bowl LVI, Kupp – who finished with eight receptions for 92 yards with two touchdowns – earned MVP honors in the Rams’ 23-20 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday night.

Kupp’s touchdown with 1:25 to go in the game capped a 15-play, 79-yard drive when he came down with the game-clinching score from quarterback Matthew Stafford to lift the Rams to their first title since the 1999 season.
Kupp became just the eighth wide receiver since 1976 to win Super Bowl MVP.
"I don’t feel deserving of this. … I don’t know what to say," Kupp told NBC’s Mike Tirico on the podium after winning the award.
