About this listen

 Cooper Kupp has been all over the headlines in the past few days, with the most significant development being his arrival in Seattle after signing a forty-five million dollar contract with the Seahawks this past March, a move widely regarded as career-defining for both Kupp and the franchise. According to Fox Sports, Kupp, a Washington native and Eastern Washington alum, joined Seattle following his release from the Rams and is now collaborating on one of the league’s most innovative passing attacks with second-year star Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Kupp spoke at joint practices last week, highlighting how his pairing with Smith-Njigba could elevate both receivers’ games and keep defenses guessing. The pair have shown substantial versatility, frequently moving around the formation and stacking in the slot, demonstrating why Seattle is optimistic about their offense heading into the season.

The Seahawks’ decision to pair Kupp and Smith-Njigba was met with some confusion, as both receivers excelled in the slot, but Kupp is confident that their skill sets will complement rather than overlap. In preseason action against Kansas City, Seattle’s new quarterback Sam Darnold connected efficiently in limited reps, further highlighting the team’s revamped offensive strategy. ESPN’s NFL Nation noted on Tuesday that, following DK Metcalf’s trade and Marquez Valdes-Scantling’s release, Kupp and Smith-Njigba are locked in as Seattle’s clear top two receivers, though depth remains a concern as the team looks to fill out its wide receiver room with relatively inexperienced talent.

From a fantasy football perspective, Sports Illustrated’s Shawn Childs called Kupp an undervalued pick for the season, ranking him in the mid-40s among NFL wide receivers but noting his career production and route running still make him a “value selection” if he can stay healthy and play at least fifteen games, especially with his projected workload in Seattle’s offense. Discussions around Kupp on fan forums have ranged from cautious optimism to skepticism, with comments noting both excitement and concern about his age and durability. Dynasty League Football even referenced Kupp as the gold standard for sleeper wideouts from smaller schools, suggesting his legacy continues to set a benchmark for prospects.

On social media, Kupp’s preseason practice highlights with Smith-Njigba were widely shared, reflecting strong fan engagement and anticipation for the duo’s debut. No notable public controversies, off-field news, or personal media appearances surfaced in the past twenty-four hours, keeping the focus squarely on football.
