With Tee Higgins nearing free agency, Cincinnati faces a real problem. Losing Higgins would strip Joe Burrow of his most reliable sidekick outside Ja&rsquo;Marr Chase. And then we have Cooper Kupp&mdash;a name that&rsquo;s now circling trade rumors. Is this move even on the table? Let&rsquo;s find out<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Zac Taylor and Cooper Kupp connection feels too coincidental<\/h2><p>Zac Taylor and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DFTDSWIxcqO\/?igsh=MTlxbjJxZnZrc3Nxeg%3D%3D\" rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Cooper Kupp<\/a> aren&rsquo;t strangers. Back in 2017, Taylor worked as the Rams&rsquo; assistant wide receivers coach when Kupp entered the league. That year, Kupp&rsquo;s name blew up for his precise routes and instant chemistry with then-QB Jared Goff. And now, Taylor leads an offense that could use exactly that&mdash;a polished, proven veteran.<\/p><p>Taylor doesn&rsquo;t have to guess whether Kupp would fit his scheme. He&rsquo;s seen it firsthand. He <em>knows<\/em> how to use him. And that connection could make the Bengals a very real trade destination.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Should the Bengals trade for Cooper Kupp?<br><br>WATCH: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/V0RE0gs2NX\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>https:\/\/t.co\/V0RE0gs2NX<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChatSports?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@ChatSports<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/GYgUxgeT49\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/GYgUxgeT49<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Stone Shields (@stoneshields_) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/stoneshields_\/status\/1883566504840720691?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>January 26, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&ldquo;<em>Kupp also has ties to Bengals head coach Zac Taylor, who served as the Rams&rsquo; assistant wide receivers coach in 2017.

His quarterback, Matthew Stafford, might be done. The Rams, as a whole, seem like a team trying to figure out what&rsquo;s next. And then there&rsquo;s Joe Burrow, a quarterback you&rsquo;d call the ultimate upgrade.<\/p><blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&ldquo;<em>The Rams wideout could be drawn to playing with Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow as Matthew Stafford contemplates his future,&rdquo;<\/em> per @bleacherreport.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote><p>Catching passes from Burrow while playing alongside Ja&rsquo;Marr Chase? That&rsquo;s tempting. But Kupp turns 31 this year and hasn&rsquo;t played a full season since 2021. Would Cincinnati really want to take that risk?<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Bengals&rsquo; Options Are Messy, But That Is What Makes This Interesting<\/h2><p>Let&rsquo;s not sugarcoat this. The Bengals&rsquo; offense isn&rsquo;t in an ideal spot. They drafted Jermaine Burton in 2024 to prepare for situations like this. But Burton hasn&rsquo;t delivered. Four catches for 107 yards as a rookie? That&rsquo;s not going to cut it.<\/p><p>And if Higgins does leave, then what? Cincinnati&rsquo;s offense will feel incomplete. Sure, Ja&rsquo;Marr Chase is an unstoppable force, but one receiver can&rsquo;t carry the load. Yet, going all-in on Kupp doesn&rsquo;t scream &ldquo;safe.&rdquo; His age and injury history aren&rsquo;t exactly screaming <em>sure thing<\/em>.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">HELL OF A RUN: Cooper Kupp may have just played his final game with the Los Angeles <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Rams?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#Rams<\/a>.<br><br>Kupp is one of the best players in team history and is one hell of a story, an undersized zero-star recruit to Super Bowl MVP and Triple Crown Winner.<br><br>Remarkable&#129761; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/hHf77XQzDa\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/hHf77XQzDa<\/a><\/p>&mdash; MLFootball (@_MLFootball) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/_MLFootball\/status\/1882608634628309014?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>January 24, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Pairing Kupp with Chase would give Burrow one of the most dangerous WR duos in the league.
