The 28-year-old Cooper Kupp will receive the most guaranteed money of that group, and his extension will give him the third-highest average annual value.
Cooper Kupp: 40 time| Contract| Contract extension
40 time:
His 40 time is a 4.62.
Cooper Kupp didn’t exactly dominate the NFL Scouting Combine in 2017. He ran a 4.62 in the 40-yard dash, had a 31-inch vertical and a 116-inch broad jump, and didn’t show the explosiveness teams typically seek in wide receivers.
His lateral quickness and leverage allow him to beat defenders off the line. Kupp, ran the 40-yard dash at the 2017 draft combine in an unimpressive 4.62 seconds.
Contract:
The contract includes $75 million guaranteed and is worth $110 million over the five years of the deal, sources said.
It’s the highest amount of guaranteed money ever given to an NFL wide receiver.
In a video tweeted out by the Rams, Kupp expressed his excitement over the deal.
“Really glad to be coming back to Los Angeles and be here in the long haul,” he said. “This is going to be an incredible ride. Can’t wait to get back at it.”
Contract Extension:
Kupp is now due $110 million over the next five seasons and is under contract through 2026. His $75 million guaranteed represents the highest total ever given to an NFL wide receiver.
“The Los Angeles Rams made a childhood vision a reality when they showed their belief in me on draft day and [Wednesday] they showed continued faith,” Kupp wrote on social media.
“For that, I want to thank the Kroenke family, the front office and coach Sean McVay.”
Last season, Kupp led the league with 145 catches for 1,947 yards and 16 touchdowns during the regular season. He also caught two touchdowns in Super Bowl LVI and was named MVP of the game. He became the fourth player since the 1970 merger to lead the league in receptions, receiving yards and receiving touchdowns.
