Cooper Kupp, the Los Angeles Rams’ wide receiver, has been declared as the Most Valuable Player (MVP) at the Super Bowl LVI.
Kupp’s 4-yard touchdown reception was initially negated by offsetting penalties, but the game ended soon after with the NFL Offensive Player of the Year easily beating Eli Apple in the right corner of the end zone for the winning score.
Kupp had four receptions for 39 yards, and a 7-yard run on fourth-and-1 from the Rams 30 on the championship drive.
For what is being touted as the ‘greatest performance of all time’, five of hip hop’s biggest legends, Dr Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J Blige, and Kendrick Lamar hit the stage at the Super Bowl Halftime show.
