Cooper Kupp is “so thankful” for wife Anna and their young family for helping to make his NFL dreams a reality.
On Wednesday, the Rams receiver agreed to a three-year, $80 million contract extension with the team, four months after being named the MVP of Super Bowl 2022. Shortly after the deal was announced, Kupp expressed gratitude for Anna in a message shared on Instagram.
“My family.. Anna, June, Cypress. Thank you for your willingness to allow me to play the game I love to the utmost,” Kupp wrote, referencing the couple’s young sons.

Kupp and Anna have been married since 2015, two years before the Rams selected him with the 69th overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft.
“The Los Angeles Rams made a childhood vision a reality when they showed their belief in me on draft day.. and today they showed continued faith. For that, I want to thank the Kroenke family, the front office, and Coach McVay,” Kupp said Wednesday in his Instagram message.
The 28-year-old receiver had a year for the record books last season, leading the league in receptions (145), receiving yards (1,947), and receiving touchdowns (16). He also scored two touchdowns during the Rams’ Super Bowl victory over the Bengals and was named the game’s MVP.
