Who Should I Start? Easop Winston Jr. or Tutu Atwell

Sunday, August 18, 3:42 AM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Easop Winston Jr. caught three of his four targets for 47 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's preseason loss to the Tennessee Titans. The score was an absolute beauty. Barely a step ahead of cornerback Tre Avery, Winston looked over his shoulder as he crossed the goal line in time to snag a 23-yard arcing pass from Sam Howell for the touchdown. Winston also had a 15-yard reception with eight seconds left in the first half, advancing a drive that resulted in a field goal before the break. Winston is playing for a roster spot and, assuming he does make the cut, would be unlikely to challenge DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, or Jaxon Smith-Njigba for targets.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell had a team-high eight targets in the Rams' Week 18 loss to the Seahawks, but he only managed to total 37 yards on his five catches. The third-year receiver played 55% of the team's offensive snaps, which was only the third-highest mark at receiver, but he got plenty of attention from backup quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. Atwell finishes the season with new career bests of 42 receptions and 562 yards, although he failed to find the end zone this season. After Sunday's busy game, he will return to his regular role next week with Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp available to work with Matthew Stafford in the Wild Card Round against the Vikings.
