NFL Teams That Could Trade for Cooper Kupp

Cooper Kupp


I’ve recently discussed possibilities for players to either sign or get traded to certain teams. This analysis has been all over the place, so I thought I’d move everything to one page.

Rams seeking to trade Cooper Kupp (Oct. 22, 2024)
Dianna Marie Russini reports that the Rams have called teams about a Cooper Kupp trade. They are reportedly seeking a second-round pick and salary cap relief.

I don’t know how many teams would want a 32-year-old receiver who may not work outside of Sean McVay’s system, but there might be some takers.

Here are some teams that could trade for Kupp:

New York Jets: Aaron Rodgers needs more help. OK, just kidding. I had to do it. Let’s get to the real teams.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers: The Buccaneers are 4-3, but they just lost Mike Evans and Chris Godwin to injury. They have to be considered the favorites, especially given that offensive coordinator Liam Coen coached Kupp in the past.

Pittsburgh Steelers: Russell Wilson looked surprisingly great on Sunday night despite having only one downfield threat. The Steelers tried to trade for Brandon Aiyuk, so perhaps they’ll have interest in Kupp.

Kansas City Chiefs: Rashee Rice and Marquise Brown are out for the year. Even JuJu Smith-Schuster is injured. Kansas City’s offense needs a boost.

Dallas Cowboys: Jerry Jones is desperate for a Super Bowl. He has the seventh-most cap space, and he knows that his team won’t have a chance with a washed-up Brandin Cooks or mediocre Jalen Tolbert as the second option at wide receiver. I currently have Dallas addressing the position in my 2025 NFL Mock Draft.

Washington Redskins: Jayden Daniels’ amazing play has the Redskins as an unexpected Super Bowl contender. Washington needs a viable No. 2 receiver to complement Terry McLaurin.

Philadelphia Eagles: Philadelphia has the worst receiving depth chart in the NFL beyond the top two options. If they are worried about either A.J. Brown or DeVonta Smith returning from injury, Howie Roseman could pull the trigger on a trade for Kupp.
