Wife of ex-Rams star Cooper Kupp pens emotional message after wideout's release: 'Lucky to have you'
The Los Angeles Rams have released Cooper Kupp. Colin Cowherd and Albert Breer react to the move and wonder where the star wideout will go next.
The Los Angeles Rams officially cut Super Bowl LVI MVP Cooper Kupp after eight seasons on Wednesday after failing to find a suitable trade for the veteran receiver, a move that elicited an emotional response from his wife on social media.
The news of Kupp’s departure from the Rams came as no surprise after he announced last month that the NFL team informed him of their intentions to trade him.
