Kupp advocates for grass surface at Lumen Field, stating that playing on grass makes his body feel significantly better than turf. He emphasizes personal physical experience over injury metrics: "It makes a huge difference. I know all the metrics and all the data that say the injury rates of this, but I don't know. I know how I feel. You ask a lot of players who will say the same thing. Whether injury rates change or not, I know how my body feels, everything on turf versus grass." Kupp previously made similar advocacy during his 2022 time with the Los Angeles Rams, saying "We should be on grass."
