Who Should I Start? Tutu Atwell or Tre' Harris

Monday, October 27, 5:30 PM

The Los Angeles Rams placed wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Monday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Now that he's on IR, Atwell will be forced to miss at least four games and won't be eligible to return until Week 13 against the Carolina Panthers on Nov. 30. The 26-year-old has been a depth option for the Rams' WR corps this year, but he did have a two-week streak with three catches, 160 yards and a touchdown as a deep threat for quarterback Matthew Stafford. He was unable to capitalize on Puka Nacua's (ankle) absence in Week 6 in London in the win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in which he played just 10 offensive snaps due to his hamstring injury. While Atwell is on the shelf, look for Jordan Whitting to play a bigger role as a complementary piece behind Nacua and Davante Adams, who have been target hogs in the Rams' passing attack.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Tre' Harris has recently seen his role grow, holding about a 50% snap share and catching two passes for 18 yards last week in the team's win over the Tennessee Titans. Although he made a clutch first-down catch to help secure the victory, he remains part of a crowded receiver group with several proven pass-catchers ahead of him. Facing the surging Pittsburgh Steelers defense, Harris's chances for a significant fantasy performance are limited. While the questionable injury status of fellow rookie KeAndr Lambert-Smith (hamstring) could slightly increase his route participation, the presence of established receivers limits his weekly volume. Harris should still be a deep-league stash, but probably shouldn't be in starting lineups this week.
