From the moment Kupp himself announced that the Rams were trying to trade him, it seemed like an impossibility. No one would be taking on his $20 million compensation package, and Kupp had no reason to take less to facilitate a deal.

The Los Angles Rams cut Super Bowl 56 MVP Cooper Kupp after being unable to find a trade partner for their former No. 1 wide receiver.

Over the last few days, the Rams also extended receiver Tutu Atwell on a one-year, $10 million deal according to a league source, and signed receiver Davante Adams on a two-year, $46 million deal with $26 million guaranteed, league sources said.
