Patriots lose out on free agent WR Cooper Kupp to Seahawks
Briefly

Cooper Kupp has signed a three-year, $15 million contract with the Seattle Seahawks, marking his return home to Washington. The New England Patriots, who were reportedly interested in him following his release from the Los Angeles Rams, were ultimately outbid. This signing poses a significant setback for the Patriots, who struggled in their wide receiver department last season. With Kupp off the market, the Patriots face limited options as they look to bolster their receiving corps before the NFL Draft next month.
Kupp's signing is a tough blow for the Patriots, a team in dire need of an improved wide receiver room.
New England was reportedly in the market for Kupp after missing out on signing other big-name receivers.
Kupp accepted the highest bidder's offer and remains home on the West Coast.
The Athletic's Jeff Howe reported on Friday morning that Kupp's asking price was "as high as $15."
