Seahawks Land Former $80 Million Super Bowl MVP

The Seattle Seahawks continue to make major moves in NFL free agency with the latest addition being a familiar face for the 12s. Seattle is plucking a former NFC West foe to help bolster the team’s offense.

The Seahawks have agreed to terms with former Los Angeles Rams star receiver Cooper Kupp. The former Pro Bowler became available after the Rams released the wideout during NFL free agency. It is a bit of a homecoming for Kupp who grew up in Yakima, Wash.

“Cooper Kupp was born and grew up in Washington,” The Athletic’s Dianna Russini detailed in a March 14, 2025, message on X. “He played college football at Eastern Washington.

“Now, he’s back in his home state after agreeing to terms on a three-year deal worth $15 million per year with the Seahawks, per source.”


Cooper Kupp Has Agreed to a 3-Year, $45 Million Contract With the Seahawks

Prior to being released, Kupp was previously on a three-year, $80 million deal that was slated to go through the 2026 season. After battling multiple injuries in recent years, the Rams opted to release the 31-year-old playmaker.

Kupp missed a combined 18 games over the last three years. The early indications are Kupp is inking a three-year, $45 million contract with the Seahawks to return to the state of Washington. It remains to be seen how much of Kupp’s new deal is guaranteed.


Kupp will be tasked with helping the Seahawks replace the production lost by releasing Tyler Lockett and trading DK Metcalf. The moves clearly signal Seattle plans to lean on Jaxon Smith-Njigba as the team’s new top receiver.
