A new weapon for Caleb Williams: 4 deals that will get Cooper Kupp on the Chicago Bears immediately

After a mostly wonderful career in Los Angeles, the Rams are kicking Cooper Kupp to the curb. And the wide receiver ain’t happy about it.

I was informed that the team will be seeking a trade immediately and will be working with me and my family to find the right place to continue competing for championships. I don’t agree with the decision and always believed it was going to begin and end in LA.

The kindest part of the announcement is that the Rams are, “…working with [Kupp] and [his] family to find the right place to continue competing for championships.”

Should that place be Chicago?

Yes. Please. Thank you. And here are four ways that Bears GM Ryan Poles can make it happen.

Trade #1

CHICAGO RECEIVES

Cooper Kupp

LOS ANGELES RAMS RECEIVE

2025 third round pick

2026 fifth round pick

This would be the least complex way to get Kupp into the building: A couple of picks, done, call it a day.

Would L.A. go for it? There’s plenty of wide receiver value to be had in round three, some recent examples being Chris Godwin, Keenan Allen, Tyler Lockett, and—wait for it, wait for it—Cooper Kupp.

Trade #2

CHICAGO RECEIVES

Cooper Kupp

LOS ANGELES RAMS RECEIVE

Tyrique Stevenson

2025 fifth round pick

A huge contingent of Bears fans—this writer among them—would love to see Stevenson shipped out of town, as we still hold a grudge for his super-foolish behavior that led to the infamous Hail Jayden disaster.

The Rams need some help in the defensive backfield, and if L.A. coach Sean McVey can knock some sense into Stevenson, it’s a win/win.

Trade #3

CHICAGO RECEIVES

Cooper Kupp

Los Angeles 2025 second round pick

LOS ANGELES RAMS RECEIVE

Kyler Gordon

Chicago 2025 fifth round pick

Gordon is beloved inside of Halas Hall, but landing Kupp and a second would be hard for Poles to turn down.

Trade #4

CHICAGO RECEIVES

Cooper Kupp

LOS ANGEES RECEIVES

D’Andre Swift

Chicago 2025 sixth round pick

Two words: Domino effect. This move would make it a whole lot easier for Poles to draft Ashton Jeanty or sign free agent Aaron Jones Jr.—either of which would thrill this writer to no end.

Okay, it’s just two dominoes, but those two dominoes could help Caleb Williams drag the Bears to the 2025 playoffs.
