Jordan Whittington News
Tuesday, November 10, 12:00 PM
The Los Angeles Rams have placed wide receiver Jordan Whittington (back) on Injured Reserve, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. Whittington has barely been utilized in the Rams' offense so far this season, recording two catches for 12 yards on four targets across eight games. However, Los Angeles is hurting for wide receiver talent, with Davante Adams (hamstring) already on Injured Reserve and Puka Nacua (knee, toe) likely to join him. With Whittington now also sidelined, Rams wideouts Konata Mumpfield and Tutu Atwell profile as the Rams' top wide receiver options. Wilson also reports that Los Angeles is signing wide receiver Xavier Smith to replace Whittington on the active roster.

Jalen Royals News
Tuesday, November 10, 5:30 PM
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Jalen Royals caught two passes for 18 yards in a Week 9 win over the New York Jets. He has tallied eight total receptions (on 14 targets) for 63 yards (7.9 yards per reception) and one touchdown in 2026. In terms of targets, Royals has worked behind tight ends Travis Kelce and Noah Gray, running backs Kenneth Walker III and Emmett Johnson and wide receivers Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy (hamstring) this season. Things didn't get any clearer for Royals on Tuesday, as the Chiefs traded the Indianapolis Colts for wideout Josh Downs ahead of the trade deadline. There is a chance that Royals could see a slight uptick in opportunities in a Week 10 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons, with Worthy dealing with a hamstring issue and being considered "day-to-day," and Downs needing to get acclimated to his new team and playbook. However, Royals is currently rostered in 0% of Yahoo leagues and ranks as RotoBaller's No. 98 wide receiver for Week 10 (half-PPR). He is way off the fantasy radar, and there is probably no need to add him until he proves he can be productive.
