Social media detectives believe they’ve uncovered evidence that Los Angeles Rams star wide receiver Cooper Kupp is about to be traded to a top NFC team.
On Tuesday, Dianna Russini, Mike Silver and Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reported that the Rams have spoken to other clubs about a potential Cooper Kupp trade. It was noted that Los Angeles is eyeing a second-round pick as part of the return.
The Rams (2-4) will unlikely make the postseason this year amid a rash of injuries. so it’s no surprise that Kupp is available in a trade. Fellow star wide receiver Puka Nacua has been sidelined since Week 2 with a knee injury, though he returned to practice this week and is closing in on a return to action.
The Nov. 5 trade deadline is less than two weeks away, so the Rams have time to negotiate multiple offers for Cooper Kupp. But some heads-up fans on social media believe that Kupp’s next team has already been determined.
That team would be the Minnesota Vikings, who visit the Rams at SoFi Stadium on “Thursday Night Football.” These fans believe a Kupp trade will be completed after the Week 8 prime-time contest.

The Vikings don’t exactly need wide receiver help with the dynamic pass-catching trio of Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison and TJ Hockenson. But adding a player with big-game experience like Cooper Kupp, who won Super Bowl 56 MVP honors with the Rams, would certainly bolster the offense.
Cooper Kupp Could Be The Final Piece Of A Super Bowl Puzzle
Kupp has suffered numerous injuries over the last three seasons, being limited to 21 games in 2022 and 2023. But the 31-year-old is still a giant difference-maker when healthy, and he could easily be the final piece for a team competing for the Super Bowl this year.
The Kansas City Chiefs, Baltimore Ravens, Dallas Cowboys, Cincinnati Bengals and Pittsburgh Steelers are among the other teams that could use Kupp for a Super Bowl push.
