Just before the start of the 2020 season, the Los Angeles Rams gave Cooper Kupp a three-year extension worth $47.25 million. It was a well-deserved extension for Kupp, who still had one year left on his contract, getting a nice raise to $15.75 million per year.
After seeing all the contracts being signed by receivers this offseason, Kupp looks like a massive bargain for the Rams at that salary. Davante Adams is getting $28 million per year from the Raiders, Christian Kirk got $18 million per year from the Jaguars and Mike Evans’ new deal with the Chargers pays him $20 million per year. Tyreek Hill got a major bump in pay, too, after being traded to the Dolphins, landing a four-year deal worth $120 million.
Based on annual salary, Kupp ranks 16th in the NFL among all receivers. He’s just barely the highest-paid receiver on his own team, making $250,000 more than newcomer Allen Robinson. Robert Woods was the top-paid receiver on the Rams before he was traded to the Titans, making $16.25 million per year.
