Jordan Whittington - Page 3 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Full participant Thursday Whittington (back) was a full participant in practice Thursday, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The kick returner and wide receiver was limited during Wednesday's session. Whittington played through the injury last Sunday against the 49ers, seeing seven offensive snaps and 14 special-teams snaps. In 2025, he has 12 catches for 121 yards as a receiver and 109 kickoff-return yards.

Limited Wednesday Whittington (back) was limited in Wednesday's practice, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Whittington played through the back issue last Sunday against the 49ers, but he played just seven offensive snaps and appears to have fallen behind both Xavier Smith and Konata Mumpfield on the depth chart behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams (oblique).

Usage deteriorates again Whittington didn't record a target during Sunday's 42-26 victory against the 49ers.

Impact Whittington was on the field for a season-low seven snaps on offense, which may have been partially due to a back injury that held him out of practice for part of the week. Fellow backups Xavier Smith and Konata Mumpfield played nearly the same amount of time as starters Puka Nacua and Davante Adams. With Nacua and Adams still dominating the attention of Matthew Stafford with a combined 11-141-2 stat line, it's difficult to rely on any other receiver for the Rams. A game with massive ramifications for the NFC West is up next on the docket, as the Rams host the Seahawks in Week 11.

Active Sunday Whittington (back) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Impact After missing practice Wednesday and Thursday, Whittington logged a limited session Friday before being listed as questionable for Sunday's contest. With his Week 10 availability confirmed, Whittington will continue to work behind the Rams' clear-cut top WRs, Puka Nacua and Davante Adams. In that role, Whittington has recorded a 12/121/0 receiving line on 17 targets in eight games, a pace that keeps him off the fantasy radar in most formats.

Questionable to face 49ers Whittington (back) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Nate Adkins of The Athletic reports.

Impact Whittington is set to practice in a limited fashion Friday, which is a step in the right direction after he was unable to practice Wednesday or Thursday. Blake Corum may get a chance to return kickoffs if Whittington doesn't play Sunday, while Konata Mumpfield and Xavier Smith could see additional snaps at wide receiver.

NOVEMBER 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Misses practice again Whittington (back) did not participate in practice for the second day in a row Thursday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

Impact The kick returner and wide receiver will have one more chance to practice ahead of Sunday's matchup with the 49ers. Whittington has 12 catches for 121 yards and 109 kickoff return yards on the year. If he can't go Sunday, Blake Corum might be next in line to handle kickoff return duties.

Misses practice Wednesday Whittington (back) was a non-participant at practice Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

Impact Whittington popped up on the injury report with an apparent back injury to open the week. The wide receiver failed to garner a target in the team's 34-10 win over the Saints in Week 9, potentially getting hurt during the game. He'll have two more chances to return to practice prior to Sunday's contest against the 49ers.

Uninvolved in victory Whittington failed to record a target during Sunday's 34-10 victory against the Saints.

Impact Even with Puka Nacua (chest) missing a portion of the contest with injury and Tutu Atwell (hamstring) on IR, Whittington found himself blanked on the stat sheet for the first time since Week 1. Matthew Stafford once again had a monster game, with four more touchdowns and 281 yards through the air, so the volume for the receiving corps is there. If Nacua misses any time with his rib injury, Whittington would be a primary beneficiary, although he has yet to eclipse 42 yards receiving and is still seeking his first touchdown on the season.

NOVEMBER 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Makes pair of catches Whittington secured two of four targets for nine yards during Sunday's 35-7 victory against the Jaguars.

Impact The second-year pro actually led all Rams' wideouts in snaps played in the London contest, taking the field for 41 out of 70 snaps. Whittington wasn't able to do much with that usage, however, as Davante Adams, Terrance Ferguson and Konata Mumpfield were the targets of Matthew Stafford's five passing touchdowns on the day, with Adams garnering three by himself. Whittington hasn't hit the next level in terms of production through seven games, with a meager 12-121-0 stat line as the Rams enter their bye week. He'll look to get back on track in Week 9 in a home contest against the Saints.

OCTOBER 20, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Season-high three catches Whittington secured three of four targets for 33 yards during Sunday's 17-3 victory against the Ravens.

Impact In the wake of Puka Nacua (ankle) missing a considerable portion of the contest due to an ankle sprain, it was the second-year pro Whittington who saw the biggest uptick in play time, leading all Rams' wide receivers with 49 snaps on offense. The expanded stint on the field only led to a small uptick in Whittington's stat line, although he did set season-highs in catches and targets. If Nacua were to miss any time with his injury, it appears as though Whittington is most likely to step in alongside Davante Adams and assume a larger role, especially if Tutu Atwell (hamstring) isn't 100 percent next week against the Jaguars.

Makes back-to-back catches Whittington secured two of three targets for 33 yards during Thursday's 26-23 overtime loss to the 49ers.

Impact The second-year wideout chained together catches of 22 and 11 yards in the second quarter, which lead to a Kyren Williams 14-yard touchdown pass from Matthew Stafford. Whittington would see one final target head his way at the start of the second half before taking a back seat to Tutu Atwell, who made two huge catches of 34 and 38 yards in the third quarter and overtime, respectively. Atwell also easily outpaced Whittington in snap count (45 to 27). Atwell's game-breaking speed has been on display the last two weeks, and that additional element may have been a factor in his uptick in touches. Whittington will remain difficult to trust from a fantasy perspective, although a porous Baltimore defense that has given up the most points in the league is up next in Week 6.

OCTOBER 3, 2025 • NFL.COM

Sees boost in playing time Whittington secured his only target for seven yards and returned two kicks for 49 yards during Sunday's 27-20 victory against the Colts.

Impact There was a noticeable jump in snap counts for the second-year wideout, as Whittington was on the field for 60 snaps on offense, just two less than Puka Nacua and one less than Davante Adams. Despite the boost in usage, it didn't translate to fantasy success with just a single catch on the day. Tutu Atwell, Whittington's primary competition on the depth chart, burned through blown coverage for an game-winning 88-yard touchdown, but was also on the field for just 21 snaps on offense. A short week before a Thursday Night Football showdown against a depleted 49ers roster is up next in Week 5, and the snap counts of Whittington and Atwell will be telling as to whether the latter has reclaimed some ground on the No. 3 wideout role for the Rams.

Does little with four touches Whittington secured two of three targets for seven yards and rushed twice for seven yards during Sunday's 33-26 loss to the Eagles.

Impact Once again operating as the tertiary option at wideout, Whittington found little room to run when presented with opportunities, and was unable to replicate the huge 40-yard catch from last week against the Titans. On the field for exactly half of the Rams' snaps on offense, Whittington seems to have secured his hold on the No. 3 wideout role for the Rams, a role that is unlikely to hold much fantasy appeal given the dominance Puka Nacua and Davante Adams have in target share; 23 of Matthew Stafford's 33 pass attempts were targeted to the duo.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

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.
