Cooper Kupp is looking for the perfect ending to his first season with the Seattle Seahawks.
That has yet to be written, as the world awaits the winner of Super Bowl LX between the Seahawks and the New England Patriots, but what’s already in the books at least is Seattle’s playoff victory over Kupp’s former team, the Los Angeles Rams.
Talking to reporters on Monday, the 32-year-old credited that part of his journey to the “scriptwriters,” who he said “did a great job” of setting up the story of him beating his former club while playing for his hometown team, via Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic.
Of course, Kupp was simply joking with that statement, but the Seahawks’ 31-27 win in the NFC Championship game over the Rams was nonetheless one of the most compelling games in the 2025 NFL campaign.
Kupp, who won a Super Bowl before with the Rams, only had 36 receiving yards on 4 catches and 6 targets versus Los Angeles, but one of his receptions was for a touchdown that extended Seattle’s lead to 11 points with under five minutes left in the fourth quarter.
After spending his first eight seasons in the NFL with the Rams, Kupp decided to take his talents to LA’s NFC West rivals Seahawks by signing a 3-year, $45 million contract with Seattle in March 2025.
