Cooper Kupp left an impact on the Los Angeles Rams, their fans and their players, and Jared Verse seemingly recently spoke about how he really hasn’t kept up with Kupp since their time together in L.A., but he reflected that he had much respect for Kupp.
You can see the quote below and it makes sense. Kupp is a role model for NFL players. He’s continued to be relevant in the league, and he’s by all accounts a great person. The whole package.

Nothing of the McVay track record indicates that the ceiling is going to be higher than a pretty good quarterback … and saying you can win with Matthew Stafford and really good receivers is not saying that much.”
Kankakee native, new LA Ram Keagen Trost celebrated by community he’s become a role model for (shawlocal)
“As last month’s NFL Draft reached the back end of the third round, Keagen Trost flipped his phone face down around pick 90.
The 2019 Kankakee graduate and first-team All-SEC offensive tackle at Missouri knew he was slated to go as early as the third round, but as offensive linemen stopped coming off the board, he started to think that his draft night”
