Tutu Atwell Fantasy Stats

The Los Angeles Rams activated wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) off Injured Reserve, and he will play on Sunday against the Detroit Lions. Atwell will make his return in Week 15 after missing six games due to a hamstring injury. The 26-year-old wideout wasn't a significant piece of the Rams offense before getting injured, playing 38% of the offensive snaps and catching four of his nine targets for 164 yards and a touchdown in six games. The speedy wideout will likely slot back in as the team's No. 2 wide receiver behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams on Sunday against Detroit. Atwell projects as a deep league flex option at best in his first game back in Week 15.

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said on Wednesday that wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) will be activated from Injured Reserve this week, according to Sarah Barshop of ESPN. Atwell hasn't played since Week 7, but he figures to be active for this Sunday's showdown against the visiting Detroit Lions in Week 15. The 26-year-old caught only four of his nine targets for 164 yards and one touchdown in six games played before his hamstring injury. Atwell is certainly a deep threat in an explosive Rams offense -- he's averaging a career-best 41 yards per catch -- but it's hard to envision him doing enough to be worthy of a waiver-wire pickup in most fantasy leagues down the stretch. Receivers Puka Nacua and Davante Adams draw the vast majority of looks from quarterback Matthew Stafford in this offense.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) will not be activated off Injured Reserve for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals, according to Nate Atkins of The Athletic. The 26-year-old wideout has been sidelined since suffering a hamstring injury during the Rams' Week 7 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. The Rams opened Atwell's 21-day practice window last week, and while he's been a full participant for every practice, his return will wait at least another week. Teammates Jordan Whittington, Xavier Smith, and Konata Mumpfield will continue to split reps behind the Rams' star wide receiver duo of Davante Adams and Puka Nacua. Atwell's next chance to return to the field will be for a Week 15 showdown against the Detroit Lions in L.A.

According to Mike Masala of USA Today, the Los Angeles Rams won't activate wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) ahead of Sunday's road outing with the Carolina Panthers. The Florida native has been shelved since injuring his hamstring in the team's Week 7 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars abroad. Despite LA opening Atwell's 21-day practice window earlier this week -- and him logging three full practices -- he won't rejoin them against the hosting Panthers. For one more game, at least, teammates Jordan Whittington, Konata Mumpfield, and Xavier Smith will play behind snap leaders Davante Adams and Puka Nacua. When Atwell returns, he figures to slot back in ahead of Mumpfield and Smith in the hierarchy of the corps.

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said on Monday that the team will open the 21-day practice window for wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) this week, and "expect him to be ready to roll" in Week 13 against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, according to Adam Grosbard of the Los Angeles Daily News. The 26-year-old has not played since injuring his hamstring in Week 7, but he should be back this weekend to give the high-scoring Rams offense yet another weapon for MVP candidate Matthew Stafford. Atwell will help the Rams stretch the field, but for fantasy purposes, he won't be much more than a boom/bust deep threat in deeper leagues with limited volume. The former second-rounder has 41 yards per catch on the year, but he's caught just four of his nine targets for 164 yards and one touchdown in six games played.

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said on Friday that wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) could return from Injured Reserve next week, according to Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times. Atwell will not be available this Sunday night when the Rams take on the visiting Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but the 26-year-old wideout could be ready to roll on Sunday, Nov. 30, against the Carolina Panthers in Week 13. Even though the Rams have one of the higher-scoring offenses in the NFL, Atwell shouldn't really be in consideration for a waiver-wire pickup in most fantasy leagues with his return on the horizon. Before his hamstring injury, the former second-rounder in 2021 out of Louisville had a mere four catches for 164 yards and one touchdown in six games played as an inconsistent deep threat.

The Los Angeles Rams placed wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Monday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Now that he's on IR, Atwell will be forced to miss at least four games and won't be eligible to return until Week 13 against the Carolina Panthers on Nov. 30. The 26-year-old has been a depth option for the Rams' WR corps this year, but he did have a two-week streak with three catches, 160 yards and a touchdown as a deep threat for quarterback Matthew Stafford. He was unable to capitalize on Puka Nacua's (ankle) absence in Week 6 in London in the win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in which he played just 10 offensive snaps due to his hamstring injury. While Atwell is on the shelf, look for Jordan Whitting to play a bigger role as a complementary piece behind Nacua and Davante Adams, who have been target hogs in the Rams' passing attack.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tutu Atwell should have a significantly large role against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. Teammate Puka Nacua (ankle) was ruled out, leaving Atwell and Jordan Whittington competing for the No. 2 wide receiver role behind Davante Adams. While Whittington played more than 90 percent of the snaps last weekend, Atwell has more experience in Los Angeles' offense. He's primarily a deep threat, offering the Rams a weapon downfield with his ability to shake defenders and get open for big gains. Over his last two games alone, he has three catches, 160 yards, and one touchdown. Deep-threat players tend to be a little more boom-or-bust, so we can't guarantee that Atwell will produce even with Nacua out. However, he should certainly occupy a larger role on Sunday, giving him a greater chance to offer WR3/flex value in fantasy football.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) was officially cleared to play in Sunday's London game in Week 7 versus the Jacksonville Jaguars. Atwell did not play in the team's Week 6 victory over the Baltimore Ravens, but he's good to go for this weekend after practicing in full on both Thursday and Friday. Top receiver Puka Nacua (ankle) has been ruled out, so both Atwell and Jordan Whittington should have elevated roles in the passing attack overseas behind Davante Adams. Still, fantasy managers in deeper leagues shouldn't consider the 26-year-old pass-catcher to be much more than a dart-throw WR4/flex in Week 7, as he's been used sparingly in the offense so far this year. He'll probably be a boom/bust deep threat for the Rams with Nacua out. In five games this year, Atwell has averaged a nice 41 yards per catch but has caught only four of nine targets for 164 yards and one touchdown.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) is slated for an elevated workload in Week 7 when his team squares off with the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. The 26-year-old missed LA's win over the Baltimore Ravens last Sunday as he tended to a hamstring injury, but he's trending toward playing this weekend. He should be a boon to a roster that will be missing fellow wideout Puka Nacua (ankle). Despite only three combined receptions over his previous two appearances, Atwell eclipsed 70 receiving yards in each, amassing six total targets on far fewer than 50% of snaps. He'll have teammate Jordan Whittington to contend with for opportunities as well, but Atwell figures to see a solid increase in target share while Nacua is shelved, and should get the more valuable (downfield) targets of the two. He's worthy of a flyer in deep leagues.
