Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell has multiple catches in three straight games coming into Thursday night's road clash with the 49ers. Against the Bills last week, he reeled in all three of his targets for 45 yards, his highest total since Week 7 against the Raiders. In his first matchup with the 49ers this season, Atwell hauled in four catches for a season-high 93 receiving yards. In that game, the Rams were without target magnets Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp, though, who get most of the targets in the current offense. Atwell could still play an increased role again this week, though, with Demarcus Robinson (shoulder) and Jordan Whittington (shoulder) both questionable. Atwell is RotoBaller's WR85.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell caught all three of his targets for 45 yards in the Rams' 44-42 over the Bills in Week 14. Atwell had the third-most targets on the Rams behind only star receivers Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp. The third-year receiver from Louisville played 46% of snaps as the team's fourth receiver compared to 61% for Demarcus Robinson. However, Robinson was held without a catch and had to leave the game with an injury for the second straight week. Robinson's shoulder injury will be important to monitor this week since the Rams are back in action on Thursday against the 49ers. If Robinson is out, Atwell would step up as the team's third wide receiver and be a possible deep-league flex option after three straight games with multiple catches.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell should be viewed as a high-risk, desperation flex option in deeper 14+ team formats during Week 14 when he faces the Buffalo Bills. Atwell has been operating as the No.4 option in the Los Angeles wide receiver room and has seen an average of just 2.2 targets per game since Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp returned to action in Week 8. During this span, Atwell has averaged 21.7 yards per game with 3.7 PPR points per game. However, over his past two games, Atwell has seen a slight increase in production, averaging 34.5 yards per game while still seeing two targets in each contest. Given his low target share and current spot on the depth chart, fantasy managers should only view Atwell as a desperation flex option that carries high risk facing a Buffalo secondary that has allowed the fourth-fewest PPR points to opposing wideouts this season.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell will not be a recommended fantasy option when his team lines up against the New Orleans Saints. The 25-year-old is in store for a favorable matchup against a soft Saints defense. Still, he can't be relied upon in fantasy due to his lack of involvement in LA's offense. Since Week 8 -- when both teammates Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua returned to action -- Atwell has averaged a paltry 1.4 receptions and 18.2 yards on 2.2 targets per game. Even in an outstanding spot against a vulnerable defense, the Miami native can't be relied upon for fantasy purposes. He's RotoBaller's PPR WR89 in Week 13's rankings.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell is off the fantasy radar heading into Week 11 against the New England Patriots. Atwell played admirably in the absences of Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua earlier this year, but he has fallen back down the depth chart upon their returns. He has caught just one pass in each of his last three games, playing less than 35 percent of the snaps in all of those contests. Even against a Patriots defense allowing the 11th-most catches and receiving yards to opposing receivers, Atwell can be ignored in fantasy football. In fact, he's droppable in redraft leagues with 14 or fewer teams.
