The Story in 60 Seconds

Bret Stuter of Ramblin' Fan argues that the Los Angeles Rams are making a mistake by failing to integrate wide receiver Tutu Atwell into their offense. Despite reacquiring Atwell via a trade with the Miami Dolphins and facing injuries to Davante Adams and Puka Nacua, the Rams did not target Atwell in their Week 7 victory.

The writer believes Atwell's deep speed would stretch opposing defenses, open up room for tight ends and the running game, and prevent Nacua from being overworked. Through Week 7, Atwell has recorded just three receptions for 31 yards on four targets across 87 offensive snaps.
