Sorry for the Fox link. It's why I don't go into the politics forum ;)

"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.," he wrote.

What are they going to get for him, a warm six pack?
given the contract, not even that

this feels like the first step in what eventually will be his release

Kupp is probably due a bonus on or near the first day the league year, so thats why the announcement was made now

the Rams owe Kupp a $7.5mm roster bonus on March 15

the salary for 2025 and 2026 is $12.5 and $14.9 - and he is due another $5mm bonus next year in March. For a guy who has appeared in 12 games each of the last two years.

i have a hard time seeing a team pony up draft capital for the contract

He could fit here. However, somebody will overpay him either in a trade or salary.
That being said, he’s a very smart receiver, knows how to read coverages and would be ideal in the intermediate routes. I wouldn’t be sad to see him here, but don’t worry, it’s never going to happen.
