Tutu Atwell

Rams HC Sean McVay said Tutu Atwell “will be on the field a lot more” next season.

Between this quote and the one-year, $10 million fully guaranteed contract the Rams gave Atwell this offseason, it seems fair to assume he’ll be a key player in the offense next season. McVay said he hasn’t “done a good enough job of utilizing” the former second-round pick through the first four years of his career, but it sounds like that could change in 2025. Puka Nacua and Davante Adams will still operate as the team’s top two receivers, but the Rams have been one of the most 11-personnel-heavy teams since 2021, per PFF, which means Atwell should see plenty of time on the field if McVay sticks to his word. Atwell has shown flashes over the last two seasons with the increased workloads he has received. Since 2023, he has caught 81 passes for 1,045 and three touchdowns, averaging 12.9 YPR. It’s a long offseason, which means there’s plenty that can change between now and training camp, but Atwell could prove to be a very strong late-round pick in early fantasy drafts.
