So much for the Rams being $400,000 over the salary cap on Wednesday, huh? Since then, they’ve extended both Jalen Ramsey and Cooper Kupp, who were at the top of their offseason to-do lists.
On Saturday, Kupp agreed to a three-year deal worth $48 million, just days after Ramsey inked a five-year, $105 million extension.
Ramsey joked on Twitter after Kupp’s deal became official that the Rams turned off the salary cap like some gamers do in Madden.
We are definitely playing with salary cap turned off @EAMaddenNFL 😂.. congrats @CooperKupp WELL EARNED & DESERVED!! https://t.co/NcQVMyicwR

The Rams may have cap trouble down the line, but they have the core of their roster secured for the foreseeable future.
