LOS ANGELES -- Puka Nacua remembers the first time he heard Cooper Kupp's voice.
It was during the Los Angeles Rams' organized team activities in 2023, not long after Nacua was drafted in the fifth round. Kupp, entering his seventh NFL season, was participating in meetings virtually as he awaited the birth of his third son.
But even over video call, Nacua quickly realized how valuable it would be to get to learn from the veteran receiver.
That moment was memorable, Nacua said, because after hearing Kupp speak, he quickly realized he had a mentor in the Rams wide receivers room.
