2024 Fantasy Outlook
A rookie sixth-round pick out of Texas, Whittington entered the college ranks with a long list of accolades, but a myriad of injuries sapped much of the potential lurking in the wings. The wideout played in only 39 games in four collegiate seasons, and his stats were middling (139-1,740-5), but the Rams are thin at wide receiver beyond Cooper Kupp, Puka Nacua and Demarcus Robinson. As a result, a path to reps as a rookie isn't out of the realm of possibility. Whittington did suffer a hamstring injury just before the NFL Combine, so long-term health is the biggest roadblock to finding a role as a backup in Year 1. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Team-high reception total Sunday
Whittington brought in six of eight targets for 62 yards in the Rams' 24-18 loss to the Bears on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Whittington was the Rams' leader in receptions and targets while checking in second in receiving yards to Tutu Atwell. The rookie sixth-round pick now has upped his catches, receiving yards and targets in three successive weeks, benefitting from the absences of Cooper Kupp (ankle) and Puka Nacua (IR, knee). With Kupp uncertain to return for a Week 5 home matchup against the Packers next Sunday, Whittington could continue enjoying an expanded role.
