O'Connell and Phillips have borrowed plays Kupp ran in Los Angeles and applied them to their offense with Justin Jefferson. Goessling said that the highlight-reel triple-move Jefferson pulled on Stephon Gilmore for a touchdown in 2022 was a play design made by Kupp during the Rams offseason several years prior.

Cooper Kupp is staying in the NFC West but heading north. The ex-Rams star is signing a three-year contract worth $45 million with the Seahawks, according to multiple reports. Kupp is a Yakima, Wash., native who attended Eastern Washington, so this move is a homecoming for the 2021 All-Pro wideout.

The receiver is no longer on the Rams roster, but he could play against his former team at least twice next season after agreeing to terms with Seattle.
