After the Rams’ 30-20 victory over the Vikings on Thursday night, the head coach does his best to put speculation surrounding the former Super Bowl MVP to rest.

The All-Pro wideout is aware that his name has been mentioned in trade conversations, and with the NFL trade deadline just two weeks away, the Rams are taking calls on their star pass-catcher according to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini, who stated the Rams are willing to eat some of Kupp’s salary if they can get a second-round pick back in exchange.

NFL Media previously reported that teams had called the Rams concerning Kupp's availability. The Athletic reported that the Rams had made calls to prospective trade partners, and even indicated a willingness to take on some of Kupp's 2024 salary. After the Week 8 victory, Rams coach Sean McVay was asked about those reports.
