Cooper Kupp<\/a> played eight seasons for the Rams, highlighted by his 2021 performance, when he was the NFL\u2019s offensive player of year<\/a> and the most valuable player of Super Bowl LVI<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, the Rams will play against Kupp for the first time<\/a> when the Seattle Seahawks visit SoFi Stadium for a game that will determine first place in the NFC West.<\/p>\n

Kupp, released by the Rams last March after they could not find a trade partner, is a complementary piece of a Seahawks offense that features quarterback Sam Darnold<\/a> and receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who is on pace to break the NFL season record for yards receiving.<\/p>\n

But Kupp, who has 26 catches for 367 yards and a touchdown, is still on the minds of Rams players and coaches.<\/p>\n

Gary Klein breaks down Sunday\u2019s matchup between the Rams and the Seattle Seahawks at SoFi Stadium.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m glad he\u2019s feeling good and ready to rock and roll,\u201d quarterback Matthew Stafford<\/a> said. \u201cHe\u2019s a lifelong friend of mine. Obviously, we\u2019ll be competing against him this weekend, but it\u2019ll be good to see him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kupp played \u201can instrumental role\u201d in building the Rams\u2019 culture, coach Sean McVay<\/a> said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe modeled the way,\u201d McVay said, adding, \u201cHe\u2019s elevated a lot of people in this building.\u201d<\/p>\n

Receiver Puka Nacua<\/a> benefited from Kupp\u2019s tutelage.<\/p>\n

\u201cA foreign feeling for sure,\u201d Nacua said when asked what it would be like playing against Kupp for the first time. \u201cI know I\u2019m excited to see him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Is there a postgame jersey swap planned?<\/p>\n

\u201cHonestly, I\u2019m hoping that he doesn\u2019t take it off because if I see him take it off for somebody else, I might hit somebody on our team, respectfully,\u201d Nacua said, laughing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"p]:text-cms-story-body-color-text clearfix”> Cooper Kupp played eight seasons for the Rams, highlighted by his 2021 performance, when he was…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":54949,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[3557,34265,423,48,52,51,47,50,49,769,11591,34267,8062,11706,10947,34266,6427,5712,1009,315,1539],"class_list":["post-54948","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles","tag-am","tag-cooper-kupp","tag-game","tag-la","tag-la-headlines","tag-la-news","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-headlines","tag-los-angeles-news","tag-nacua","tag-nfl-sunday-ticket","tag-offensive-player","tag-prediction","tag-ram","tag-rams","tag-seahawks-offense","tag-seattle-seahawks","tag-sofi-stadium","tag-southern-california","tag-time","tag-yard"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54948","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=54948"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54948\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/54949"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=54948"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=54948"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=54948"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
