Tutu Atwell Could Return in Week 7

Monday, October 13, 12:08 PM

According to head coach Sean McVay, Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) should be "good to go" for next weekend's matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. The 26-year-old had been productive on limited work over the previous two weeks, but a hamstring injury sustained in Thursday's practice was enough to force him from his first contest since 2023. With the news that teammate Puka Nacua (ankle) could miss some time with an injury of his own, Los Angeles would be fortunate to have the Louisville alum out for just a single appearance. Despite the injury, Atwell never missed a practice, insinuating he has a good shot to suit up for Week 7. He'd operate as the team's No. 2 wideout if Nacua is inactive, with Jordan Whittington sliding into the WR3 role.

Josh Downs a Low-Ceiling Flex Option in Week 6

Saturday, October 11, 9:03 AM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs is off to a slow start in 2025. The veteran slot receiver has now caught just 20 passes for 175 scoreless yards in five contests. Downs thrived on seeing high volume over the past two seasons, but new Indy quarterback Daniel Jones seems to prefer throwing to Michael Pittman Jr. and Tyler Warren in the passing attack. Downs will hope to get it going in Week 6's home matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals are allowing the 20th-most fantasy points per game to opposing wideouts this season, setting up a moderately tough matchup for Downs and company. Downs is on the radar as a WR4/flex option in PPR leagues this season.
