"He's probably not my biggest fan right now," McVay said of releasing Kupp, now with the Seahawks. McVay called it a "football decision."

McVay has not only built a reputation as a great football mind, but has built a culture that has led to players to want to come to Los Angeles.

Current Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp raised eyebrows when he said that he didn’t have "a ton of clarity" from the Los Angeles Rams regarding why the team released him in March. His former head coach has now addressed those comments.
