Cooper Kupp, released by the Rams, is reportedly interested in playing for the New England Patriots. With substantial cap space, the Patriots desperately need a playmaker after missing out on targets like DK Metcalf and Chris Godwin. Kupp's interest stems from personal connections, including a former college teammate advocating for him. While Kupp's production has declined, he would still be the top option on the Patriots' depth chart. However, experts caution that New England may not be the most appealing destination for Kupp or other free agents.
According to a league source, Kupp is curious about the prospect of playing in New England and has shared that curiosity with some close to him.
Kupp is not the same player that recorded 145 catches for 1,947 yards and 16 touchdowns en route to a Super Bowl run in 2021.
With more than $100 million in cap space, the Patriots are in desperate need of a playmaker after failing to land their other targets.
Even if the Patriots have both the money and the desire to add a receiver like Kupp in free agency, they may not be the most attractive destination.
