Cooper Kupp
2025 Season Outlooks
Is it over for Kupp? The Seahawks don't seem to think so after signing him soon after the Rams released him this offseason, but the film suggests he's nowhere near the same receiver he once was. He's still got good size, great hands and good footwork with the nuance to win against man coverage with leverage, but last season he lost any advantage he had with his speed and explosiveness. He couldn't accelerate, likely the result of so many leg injuries he suffered including a high-ankle sprain last season. The injury didn't completely crush his numbers -- there was a seven-week span where he averaged 9.1 targets and 18 PPR points per game before completely vanishing in his final five, playoffs included. Perhaps reports from the Seahawks will suggest Kupp is in better shape. That would be nice, but unexpected. If he can get his timing right with Sam Darnold and also stay healthy (a big if -- he's missed at least five games in each of his past three seasons), he could contribute as a low-end No. 3 WR in full-PPR formats. It's best to draft him as a bench receiver. If it's Round 8 or earlier, let someone else take him.
Kupp signed with Seattle after spending his first eight NFL seasons with the division rival Rams. He has been an elite fantasy contributor in years past (he was No. 1 in PPG in both 2021 and 2022), but durability has been an issue (two full seasons in his career and exactly five missed games each of the past two years) and he's now 32 years old. Kupp remained a good fantasy contributor during most of last season (18.4 PPG in his first nine games), but it's concerning how quickly he faded down the stretch (4.9 PPG in his final five outings). Perhaps Kupp has one more big season left, and there are plenty of targets available opposite Jaxon Smith-Njigba, but there is certainly risk here. He's best viewed as a flex.
