Who was our quarterback named Kupp?

[Reverend Conehead]

Do you guys remember in the hey day of the 90s we had Aikman as our starting QB, Beuerlein as the backup, and then Kupp as the emergency 3rd-string QB? I don't believe Kupp ever saw any action outside of preseason and scrimmages. However, does anyone know if he was related to Cooper Kupp?

Craig Kupp bounced around the nfl as a backup QB, but only stuck for 1 reason on an active roster, the cardinals. He is Cooper’s father

did you maybe have him and cut him in training camp?

Wikipedia says:

Kupp is the son of former NFL quarterback Craig Kupp, a fifth-round draft pick by the New York Giants in 1990 out of Pacific Lutheran University who played for the Phoenix Cardinals and the Dallas Cowboys in 1991.[103] His younger brother, Ketner Kupp, also played at Eastern Washington and was signed by the Los Angeles Rams as a free agent in 2019, participating in training camp and in preseason games, but was released during the final roster cutdown.[104]

Not to worry. Jerry does.

Aikman mentioned this in a Rams broadcast early in the season. They had Cooper in the production meeting and Cooper mentioned his dad played for the Cowboys (very briefly). Troy had no idea.

That Kupp is a beast. Couldn’t be stopped . Glad he took home MVP yesterday .

I played against one of his sons in HS back in the early nineties. He was an offensive lineman for the Highland Park Scots.

The Watts, Mannings, Bosas, Samuels, Surtains, Kupps… it sure does.

 

[ClappingCarrot]

Craig Kupp.

Aikman once joked on a Cowboys Rams broadcast that he was around "for a cup of coffee in Dallas."

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Not only did Cooper Kupp's dad play for the Cowboys but his grandfather played for the Cowboys as well.

 

[DanTanna]

That settles it - we need to bring Cooper Kupp to Dallas!

 

[KJJ]

Apparently Craig Kupp never taught Cooper how to an accurate pass. That overthrow was the only thing he did wrong yesterday.
