No injury designation for Week 3 Whittington (quadriceps) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game versus Denver, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Whittington wasn't available for Monday's 28-6 win over the Giants. He didn't practice Wednesday to begin the week. However, head coach Sean McVay indicated the wideout would be available in Week 3, so his full participation in Friday's practice and omission from the injury report isn't a surprise. With Puka Nacua (hip) doubtful, Whittington could be in line for a more prominent role alongside Davante Adams.

Practices Thursday Whittington (quadriceps) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

Impact Whittington sustained the quad injury in Week 1 against the 49ers and hadn't practiced since that game before Thursday. Now, he's trending in the right direction as Sunday night's showdown with Denver approaches. Whittington caught one pass for eight yards on the 25 offensive snaps he played in the Rams' season opener.

Doesn't practice Wednesday Whittington (quadriceps) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

Impact Whittington has failed to practice since sustaining a quadriceps injury during the Rams' Week 1 loss to the 49ers. The wide receiver has missed four consecutive practices and appears no closer to suiting up for the team's Week 3 showdown with the Broncos on Sunday.

All-Pro Rams WR Puka Nacua to be limited in practice again this week with hip/groin injury

Inactive for Week 2 Whittington (quadriceps) is inactive for Monday's game against the Rams.

Impact Whittington drew the doubtful tag for MNF after missing practice all week due to a quad injury he sustained in the Rams' Week 1 loss to the 49ers. He'll join fellow wide receiver Puka Nacua (groin) in street clothes, and the duo will aim to be available for Week 3 against the Broncos on Sept. 27. The Rams will have four active wide receivers in Davante Adams, Konata Mumpfield, Xavier Smith and Tutu Atwell for Monday's game.

Puka Nacua questionable, Aaron Donald set to play for Rams on Monday night against Giants

SEPTEMBER 19 • Associated Press

Doubtful for Monday Whittington (quadriceps) is doubtful to play in Monday's game against the Giants, Benjamin Royer of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact Whittington has not practiced since sustaining his quadriceps injury in the Rams' Week 1 loss to the 49ers. The wide receiver's probable absence for Monday's contest would be made even worse if Puka Nacua (groin) were also unable to suit up. Konata Mumpfield and Xavier Smith could see increased roles against the Giants, but if multiple wide receivers must miss time, it is likely the Rams will live in 13-personnel packages with the team's deep tight end corps.

SEPTEMBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Misses practice Friday Whittington (quadriceps) did not practice Friday.

Impact Whittington logged 25 offensive snaps in the 27-7 loss to the 49ers in Week 1, finishing behind Puka Nacua (43) and Davante Adams (33). However, he ended with just one catch for eight yards. While there doesn't appear to be much upside surrounding Whittington ahead of the Week 2 meeting with the Giants, that could change if Nacua, who also didn't practice Friday due to a hip issue, can't suit up for that contest.

SEPTEMBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Catches one pass in Week 1 Whittington caught his lone target for eight yards in the Rams' 27-7 loss to the 49ers in Week 1.

Impact Whittington played 25 of 61 offensive snaps but saw his playing time elevated some late in the fourth quarter after the Rams pulled their starters. He also saw 13 snaps on special teams, returning four kicks for 94 yards. Whittington would need some injuries ahead of him to gain any fantasy relevance.

AUGUST 1 • THERAMS.COM

Early favorite for WR3 role? Whittington looks like the early leader in the competition for the Rams' No. 3 receiver job, according to Cameron DaSilva of Rams Wire.

Impact We've heard this before at a similar time of the year, and while Whittington has seen a few opportunities as the No. 3 receiver, it's rarely amounted to much in terms of routes and targets. The job bounced around between a slew of players last year, including Xavier Smith and Konata Mumpfield, both of whom are still on the team. The Rams also have rookie sixth-round pick CJ Daniels as a dark horse candidate for the job. In any case, the offense likely will use a lot of multi-TE formations, limiting the WR3's snap and route shares.

Competing for depth spot Entering his third NFL season, Whittington will enter training camp competing for the Rams' WR3 role behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

Impact A sixth-round pick of the Rams in the 2024 NFL Draft, Whittington saw his snap count on offense increase from his rookie year to his sophomore campaign. Despite the bump in playing time, that didn't result in increased production for Whittington, who finished the 2025 regular season with 18 catches (on 25 targets) for 171 yards across 17 games. His proficiency on special teams and as a blocker will keep him on the field, but training camp will provide Whittington with the opportunity to beat out Xavier Smith, Konata Mumpfield, CJ Daniels and Tyler Scott for the WR3 job behind the dynamic duo of Nacua and Adams.
