Cooper Kupp Has Hilarious Reaction to Bobby Wagner’s Return to Seahawks

Some tweets don’t age well, but it’s important to see the hilarity in that sometimes. Rams star Cooper Kupp did just that when he highlighted a tweet of his from almost a year ago to the day when he celebrated the team’s signing of Bobby Wagner—the teammate he just lost. 

On March 31, 2022, Kupp tweeted, “Let’s go!! Don’t have to play against Bobby Wagner anymore!!!!” when the star linebacker left the Seahawks for the Rams.

But now, Wagner is leaving Los Angeles, heading back to Seattle and staying in the NFC West, much to Kupp’s dismay. After all, nobody wants to see a nine-time All-Pro charging at them with bad intentions on a Sunday afternoon. 

But Kupp had some fun at his own expense, simply quote-tweeting his old post with “WELP!” and a laughing emoji to boot. 

Wagner spent just one year with the Rams, while the team was expected to compete for another Super Bowl in 2022, but they fell horrifically short. Los Angeles finished with a 5–12 record, and now it loses Wagner. 

He tallied 124 tackles, six sacks and two interceptions in his 17 games away from the Seahawks. He reportedly has agreed to a one-year deal worth $7 million to return to Seattle, and now Kupp again finds himself opposite one of the last players you want to see heading your way.
