Cupp (undisclosed) signed a reserve/future contract with Kansas City on Tuesday, Charles Goldman of A to Z Sports reports.
Cupp was signed to the team's practice squad in late August after failing to make the 53-man roster at the conclusion of training camp. He made his NFL regular-season in Week 14 against the Chargers, during which he logged 10 snaps (six on offense, four on special teams). He ended the 2024 campaign on the practice-squad injured list due to an unspecified injury, but by signing a futures deal, the 24-year-old tight end will be on the 90-man roster once the new league year starts March 12. Assuming he's fully healthy, Cupp will participate in the offseason program and training camp.

The undrafted rookie out of Texas Tech would be in line to make his NFL regular-season debut against the Chargers on Sunday if he's active, in which case he would serve as the No. 3 tight end behind Travis Kelce and Noah Gray.
