Cooper Kupp is coming back home.

Kupp, a Yakima native who played at Eastern Washington, agreed to terms on a deal with the Seahawks that will bring the standout receiver back to his home state.

Kupp will join the Seahawks after an eight-year career with the Rams that saw him catch 634 passes for 7,776 yards and 57 touchdowns, including a 2021 season in which he led the league in receptions (143) receiving yards (1,947) and touchdowns (16) on his way to first-team All-Pro and Associated Press Offensive Player of the Year honors.

Kupp, 31, earned Super Bowl MVP honors that same season while catching 33 passes for 478 yards and six touchdowns in four postseason games.

Kupp was limited to 12 games last season due to an ankle injury, but was still productive when healthy, recording 67 receptions for 710 yards and six touchdowns. In Seattle, Kupp will help lead a new-look receiver group following the offseason departures of DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, a group that includes 2024 Pro-Bowl selection Jaxon Smith-Njigba and recent free-agent addition Marquez Valdes-Scantling.

Prior to entering the NFL as a third-round pick, Kupp had a record-setting career at Eastern Washington, piling up 428 receptions, 6,464 yards and 73 touchdowns over four seasons, all of which stand as NCAA FCS records.
