Cooper Kupp of the Los Angeles Rams was named MVP of Super Bowl LVI.

He caught eight passes, two for touchdowns, totaling 92 yards, and also ran for seven yards.

After the game, Kupp opened up about his faith. “I don’t feel deserving of this,” he began. “God is just so good.” Watch the clip:

Kupp continued, “In 2019 we walked off the field that last time after losing to the Patriots; I wasn’t able to be a part of that thing.”

“But I don’t know what it was, there was just this vision God revealed to me that we were going to come back, we were going to be part of a Super Bowl, we were going to win it,” he continued.

“And somehow I was going to walk off the field as the MVP of the game,” he said.

“I shared that with my wife because I couldn’t tell anyone else obviously what that was, but from the moment this postseason started, there was just a belief, every game, that it was written already,” he said.

“It was just walking off the field. It was as clear as day,” he explained.

“It was written already and I just got to play free, knowing that I got to play from victory, not for victory. I got to play in a place where I was validated not from anything that happened on the field but because of my worth in God and my Father,” he said.

“I walked off the field, I turned around before walking back through the tunnel and it just hit me. It was as clear as I can see you guys here right now. Pretty incredible.”

More from Western Journal:

Kupp has said that one of his favorite Bible passages is 1 Corinthians 9:24-25, which reads: “Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever.”

Kupp was not the only player to speak of God after the game.
