Say what you will about http://www.authenticsteelersshop.com/shop-by-players-anthony-chicki... Cooper Kupp, but the list of people who are buying into the hype continues to grow. During an appearance on The Rich Eisen Show on Tuesday, fellow guest and former star wide receiver Steve Smith Sr. broached his love for the Rams third-round draft pick out of Eastern Washington.
McVay took that opportunity to heap even more praise on the 24-year-old receiver, noting that he performed incredibly in college against future pro-level defensive backs.
McVay went on to reveal that even future Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning is enamored with Kupp.
That presence that impressed http://www.coltsshopauthentic.com/shop-by-players-21-vontae-davis-j... the league’s greatest passer of all time that also lead McVay to then praise Kupp’s maturity by saying that he’s “a pro as a rookie.”
However, as a resident of Los Angeles, Eisen is privy to the rumor mill and his ears perked up at the mentioning of Manning’s name. The retired Manning has more than once been linked to the Rams organization via the NFL rumor mill since hanging up his cleats, but McVay clarified that his intel was gleaned merely from a hangout with mutual friends.
The coach also went on to admit that he knows that rumors were started a few months back when Kayvon Webster posted Snapchat videos and photos of a causal dinner also attended by Manning, McVay, Andrew Whitworth and Dj Fluker Womens Jersey Robert Woods.
