JORDAN WHITTINGTON NEWS

Makes big grab late Whittington secured both of his targets for 42 yards during Sunday's 33-19 win against the Titans.

Impact With the Rams looking for insurance midway through the fourth quarter, Whittington managed to find a seam and grab a dart from Matthew Stafford for a 40-yard reception, which led to a Blake Corum rushing touchdown a few plays later. Whittington has seemingly pushed past Tutu Atwell on the depth chart, but Puka Nacua and Davante Adams will likely command the majority of Stafford's attention barring an injury. However, Whittington has shown he's capable of being a primary target (13-151-0 receiving line over two games as a starter last season), which could make him an intriguing fantasy option if Nacua (who missed six games due to injury last season) or Adams (who missed four) were to miss any time.

Contributes on special teams Whittington rushed once for five yards and returned two kicks for 60 yards during Sunday's 14-9 win against the Texans.

Impact The second-year wideout was a victim of bad luck in his first game of the season; he had a lengthy 74-yard kick return called back on a holding penalty and a 34-yard reception called back on another holding penalty. Whittington was on the field for half of the Rams' snaps on offense, a noticeable bump over his usage in the second half of his rookie campaign and slightly more than Tutu Atwell. The duo are seemingly still battling for the No. 3 wideout spot on the depth chart heading into a Week 2 contest against a Titans defense that just limited the Broncos to 176 receiving yards in Week 1.

Battling for No. 3 role Whittington has made a strong impression at camp so far and will continue battling Tutu Atwell for the No. 3 spot at wide receiver, according to Cameron DaSilva of Rams Wire.

Impact Whittington was also said to be a standout of training camp last year -- after the Rams drafted him in the sixth round -- and as a rookie he had 62 or more receiving yards in each of the three games in which he took 30-plus snaps. He barely played once Puka Nacua, Cooper Kupp, Demarcus Robinson and Atwell all were healthy, but Whittington could play more in 2025 after the Rams swapped out Kupp and Robinson for Davante Adams. Any upside in terms of target volume, rather than just snaps, might require Adams or Nacua missing time.

Earns 11 snaps on offense Whittington secured his only target for 12 yards during Sunday's 28-22 divisional round loss to the Eagles.

Impact Notably, Whittington easily outpaced fellow backup Tutu Atwell, who only recorded two snaps on offense, in playing time. The sixth-round rookie carved out a small role on offense in the 2024 campaign, putting up a 22-293-0 receiving line while tacking on a pair of rushing attempts for 12 yards. Whittington's role may increase in 2025, as both Demarcus Robinson and the aforementioned Atwell are unrestricted free agents, and Whittington's production when pressed into the starting lineup was solid, including seven catches for 89 yards in a Week 5 loss to Green Bay.

Leading receiver in loss Whittington caught three of four targets for 86 yards while rushing twice for 12 yards in Sunday's 30-25 loss to Seattle.

Impact Whittington did his best Puka Nacua (rest) impression while filling in for the star wideout by recording 98 combined yards of offense. The sixth-round rookie only saw his role increase after head coach Sean McVay decided to rest all of his key offensive players in the final game of the regular season. Whittington figures to revert to a reserve/special teams role when the Rams host the Vikings in the wild-card round of the playoffs next Monday.

Impact Whittington was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday but logged a full session Friday and is good to go for Sunday's regular-season finale. With Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp unlikely to play and resting up for the playoffs next weekend, Whittington should see an elevated offensive role alongside fellow WRs Demarcus Robinson, Tutu Atwell and Tyler Johnson. They will be catching passes from Jimmy Garoppolo.
