• Rams' Tutu Atwell: Back with L. A. on one-year deal

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  Atwell and the Rams agreed to terms Thursday on a one-year, $10 million contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Atwell, a 2021 second-round pick, was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, but he'll instead return to Los Angeles on a fully guaranteed one-year, $10 million contract. Coming off a 2024 campaign in which he compiled a career-best 42-562-0 receiving line across 17 regular-season contests, the timing and guarantees of Atwell's deal signal that the Rams view him as a valued contributor on offense, especially in the context of Cooper Kupp's expected departure this offseason. With Demarcus Robinson still a pending unrestricted free agent, returning quarterback Matthew Stafford's top wideouts next season could feature a lineup of Puka Nacua, Atwell and Jordan Whittington.

• Rams' Tutu Atwell: Only two snaps in defeat

  01/20/2025 • By RotoWire

  Atwell secured his only target for 18 yards during Sunday's 28-22 NFC divisional-round loss to the Eagles. The two snaps on offense actually doubled his number from the wild-card round, and Atwell's 18-yard catch in the fourth quarter led to a Colby Parkinson touchdown. Despite a career-high 42 receptions and 562 receiving yards, Atwell failed to record a touchdown and saw his role reduced significantly once Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp returned to the lineup from injury. Atwell, along with teammate Demarcus Robinson, are unrestricted free agents heading into the offseason, and the Rams will have a decision to make on bringing one or both of them back or relying on Nacua, Kupp and rookie Jordan Whittington to anchor their wide receiver room in 2025.

• Rams' Tutu Atwell: Leads team in targets

  01/06/2025 • By RotoWire

  Atwell secured five of eight targets for 37 yards during Sunday's 30-25 loss to the Seahawks. The impending unrestricted free agent's role on offense picked up considerably with Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp earning the day off, but Atwell wasn't able to do much with his sudden bevy of targets. Taking out a 22-yard catch in the first quarter, Atwell's other four catches combined for just 15 yards, while Jordan Whittington and Demarcus Robinson combined for 158 yards on their six catches. During the 2024 regular season, Atwell recorded 42 catches for 562 yards, both career highs, but failed to record a touchdown for the first time since his rookie campaign. Heading into a wild-card weekend showdown with the Vikings, Atwell is likely to move back to his minimal role on offense.

• Rams' Tutu Atwell: Blanked as role evaporates

  12/29/2024 • By RotoWire

  Atwell played nine snaps on offense and failed to record a target during Saturday's 13-9 victory against the Cardinals. For the first time since Week 1, Atwell didn't see a single pass aimed his way, the culmination of a weeks-long trend downward for the speedster in both snap counts and production. Rookie Jordan Whittington saw the same number of snaps on offense and managed a single catch for six yards, and barring the starters earning some rest if the Rams secure a playoff spot prior to their Week 18 matchup against the Seahawks, Atwell's role on offense seems firmly cemented as minimal moving forward.

• Rams' Tutu Atwell: Makes one catch in limited role

  12/23/2024 • By RotoWire

  Atwell secured one of two targets for 12 yards during Sunday's 19-9 win against the Jets. Only three wideouts for the Rams recorded catches against the Jets, with Puka Nacua (8-56-0) and Cooper Kupp (3-24-0) mostly subdued by the potent Jets secondary. Atwell saw the field for only 11 snaps on offense, yet saw two targets in that span, double that of Demarcus Robinson. Without consistent time on the field, however, Atwell's role will continue to be suppressed, making him difficult to place in fantasy lineups with a matchup against the Cardinals on deck Week 17.
