Tutu Atwell Remains an Afterthought in Rams Offense Despite Wide Receiver Injuries

Saturday, September 26, 6:10 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell had a quiet game in his team's Week 2 win over the New York Giants, recording one catch for 19 yards on two targets. With Rams wideout Puka Nacua (groin) inactive, Atwell had a chance to step up and earn a larger role in his team's passing game. However, the 26-year-old played just 11 offensive snaps, fewer than Rams wideouts Davante Adams, Konata Mumpfield, and Xavier Smith. Atwell played an extremely limited role in Los Angeles in 2025 as well, recording six catches for 192 yards and a touchdown on 15 targets across 10 games. Even with Nacua potentially set to miss Week 3, Atwell should remain off the radar of fantasy managers.

Omar Cooper Jr. Worth a Look as Week 6 Eligibility Nears

Friday, October 9, 6:49 AM

New York Jets wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. (ankle) is still on injured reserve, but the rookie is getting closer to being eligible to return. Cooper sprained his ankle in Week 1 against Tennessee and was placed on IR on Sept. 19, keeping him out through Sunday's game against Cleveland. Week 6 at New England is the earliest he can play, although the Jets haven't announced a timetable. The first-round pick played only five offensive snaps in his debut but turned his lone target into a 30-yard catch-and-run. New York's receiving situation has changed somewhat during his absence. Adonai Mitchell (finger) has missed two straight games and hasn't practiced this week, while Isaiah Williams has taken on more work. Tim Patrick has also returned to practice after opening the season on injured reserve. Cooper was selected 30th overall and should eventually get an opportunity to compete for meaningful snaps, but his role upon returning remains uncertain. He's worth considering as an IR stash in deeper fantasy leagues, particularly for managers who can afford to wait.
