  • Remains uninvolved on offense

    Whittington went without a target while playing 10 of the Rams' 65 snaps on offense in Thursday's 12-6 win over the 49ers. He also returned two kickoffs for 51 yards.

    Analysis: Since making waves after recording 13 receptions for 151 yards on 18 targets between Weeks 4 and 5, Whittington has largely been an afterthought on offense. Shortly after Whittington's pair of breakout games, the Rams returned Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua from injuries, and the rookie's opportunities have been limited as a result. Whittington hasn't even drawn a target over his last seven outings while playing just 44 total snaps on offense.

  • Ready to go for TNF

    Whittington (shoulder) is active for Thursday night's contest against the 49ers, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official website reports.

    Analysis: Whittington was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, but he now appears to be all set for Thursday's contest. The wide receiver will likely operate as the team's primary kick returner again in Week 15.

  • Questionable for Thursday

    Whittington (shoulder) is listed questionable for Thursday's game against the 49ers, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Whittington popped up on the Rams' injury report with a shoulder issue Monday and was also listed as a non-participant for Tuesday's walk-through session. However, he logged a limited practice Wednesday and has a chance of suiting up Thursday. If Whittington can't play against San Francisco, however, Blake Corum could handle kick-return duties for Los Angeles.

  • Misses practice with shoulder issue

    Whittington (shoulder) did not practice Tuesday.

    Analysis: Whittington also missed Monday's practice session due to his shoulder injury. The rookie sixth-round pick hasn't logged a target in any of his last six appearances, but he has played a notable role as a kick returner. Wednesday's final practice report of Week 15 will reveal whether Whittington has a chance of suiting up for Thursday's game against the 49ers.

  • Gets light usage as returner

    Whittington returned one kick for 24 yards and failed to record a target during Sunday's 28-22 win against the Patriots.

    Analysis: Whittington's role since the return of Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp has been non-existent, and he hasn't managed a catch since Week 5. The sixth-round rookie's role seems to be focused on special teams at the moment (16 snaps on special teams versus five snaps on offense Sunday), and he'll continue to compete with Tutu Atwell, Tyler Johnson and Xavier Smith for a meager amount of snaps as the backups to Nacua, Kupp and Demarcus Robinson.

  • Gets back to full practice Thursday

    Whittington (shoulder) practiced fully Thursday, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Despite missing a second game in a row this past Sunday at Seattle due to a shoulder injury, Whittington was able to string together three consecutive limited practices last week. This time around, he doesn't have any restrictions, indicating that he's past the health concern. With Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua back in action, Whittington will find snaps and targets difficult to come by, but if Demarcus Robinson (toe/hip), who didn't practice Thursday, is inhibited or out Monday against the…read more

  • Sitting out again Sunday

    Whittington (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game at Seattle, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

    Analysis: Whittington thus is missing a second straight contest due to a shoulder injury, but he was able to practice in a limited capacity in all three Week 9 practices, indicating he's drawing closer to a return to action. With Whittington sidelined, Tutu Atwell, Demarcus Robinson, Tyler Johnson and Xavier Smith will be the tertiary wide receivers behind the top duo of Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua.

  • Deemed questionable

    Whittington (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Whittington was a limited practice participant Wednesday through Friday, after playing limited snaps Week 7 and sitting out Week 8 entirely. The participation level is an upgrade from last week, leaving both Whittington and fellow Rams wideout Puka Nacua (knee) questionable for Sunday's game.

  • Stays limited in practice

    Whittington (shoulder) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: With back-to-back capped sessions under his belt this week, Whittington already has managed more work than he did a week ago before he sat out last Thursday's win against the Vikings. Meanwhile, Puka Nacua aggravated his right knee injury during this Thursday's session, which could set the stage for Whittington to regain some sway in the Rams offense if he's able to suit up Sunday in Seattle and Nacua again is forced to miss time. In the end, Friday's practice report could shed some light on…read more

  • Will be limited Wednesday

    Head coach Sean McVay said Whittington (shoulder) will be a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

    Analysis: Whittington managed just one capped session last week before the Rams ruled him out for a Week 8 matchup with the Vikings. He'll thus aim to string together multiple practice appearances this week as the Rams prep for Sunday's visit to Seattle. Even when Whittington is cleared to return, he'll find snaps and targets difficult to come by with Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua now healthy again after multi-game absences.

  • Not playing Thursday

    Whittington (shoulder) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Vikings, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: Whittington earned some sway in a Rams passing game missing Puka Nacua (knee) since Week 1 and Cooper Kupp (ankle) since Week 2, culminating with 13 combined catches (on 18 targets) for 151 yards between Weeks 4 and 5. However, Whittington emerged from a Week 5 loss to the Packers with a shoulder injury, and even with the benefit of a Week 6 bye, he handled just nine offensive snaps and wasn't targeted this past Sunday versus the Raiders. Now that Whittington is out Week 8, Kupp will be…read more

  • Returns to practice Tuesday

    Whittington (shoulder) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice session, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: Whittington played through a shoulder injury during the Rams' Week 7 win over the Raiders, though he finished the game with zero targets. The rookie sixth-round pick was listed as a DNP on Monday's practice estimate, but he was able to see the field during Tuesday's session. Barring any setbacks, he should be good to go for Thursday's game against the Vikings, though Whittington would likely see his offensive snaps significantly decrease should Puka Nacua (knee) and/or Cooper Kupp (ankle)…read more

  • Estimated as non-participant

    Whittington (shoulder) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Per Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site, coach Sean McVay noted Monday that Whittington being limited to nine snaps on offense versus the Raiders on Sunday was a result of the wideout not being able to practice a lot last week due to his shoulder injury. With that in mind, McVay added that he hopes Whittington will have "a little bit more of a workload" Thursday night against the Vikings.

  • No targets in Week 7

    Whittington (shoulder) suited up against Las Vegas on Sunday, but he did not command a target in the 20-15 win.

    Analysis: Whittington returned from a minor shoulder injury suffered in the Rams' previous contest, but he did not see his role elevated despite the team missing multiple key receivers. Tutu Atwell and Tyler Johnson served as Matthew Stafford's top wideouts instead. With Cooper Kupp (ankle) expected to return against the Vikings on Thursday, Whittington can safely be left on the waiver wire for Week 8.

  • Active in Week 7

    Whittington (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game versus the Raiders, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Whittington came out of the Rams' last contest Week 5 with a shoulder injury, but he seemingly benefited from the team's ensuing bye, parlaying three limited practices into a questionable designation and eventual active status. Fellow WR Cooper Kupp made an effort to return from the left high-ankle sprain that has sidelined him since the first half of Week 2 but ultimately will log a fourth straight DNP. Whittington thus will have plenty of opportunities in L.A.'s passing game along with Tutu…read more

  • Trending toward playing

    Whittington (shoulder) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday against the Raiders, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Whittington was a limited participant in practice throughout the week while he managed the shoulder issue, but he looks like he'll be able to play through the injury concern. He'll likely have a prominent role in the passing attack waiting for him, as No. 1 wideout Cooper Kupp (ankle) is questionable but is seemingly trending toward sitting out a fourth straight game Sunday, per Schefter. During Kupp's absence in the Rams' last two games, Whittington emerged as quarterback Matt Stafford's go-to…read more

    Whittington (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: Whittington and Cooper Kupp (ankle) both are listed as questionable after being limited practice participants Wednesday through Friday, with head coach Sean McVay saying Friday that Whittington is expected to play but Kupp may come down to a game-time decision. Whittington drew 18 targets in the final two games before a Week 6 bye, handling a near-every-down role alongside wideouts Demarcus Robinson and Tutu Atwell. Kupp's return would obviously complicate things, at least in terms of projected…read more

  • Expected to play

    Rams coach Sean McVay said Friday that Whittington (shoulder) is expected to play Sunday against the Raiders, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Cooper Kupp, on the other hand, is considered truly questionable due to the left high-ankle sprain that's held him out since Week 2. Whittington suffered a shoulder injury Week 5, right before a bye week, and it seems he'll avoid any missed time. He drew 18 targets over the past two games but wouldn't be likely to approach that volume with Kupp back in the lineup.

  • Remains limited Thursday

    Whittington (shoulder) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: Whittington now has put together back-to-back capped sessions out of the Rams' Week 6 bye due to a shoulder injury that he sustained Week 5 against the Packers. Friday's practice report likely will give a sense of Whittington's odds to suit up Sunday versus the Raiders, a contest in which fellow WR Cooper Kupp (ankle), who also has been limited Wednesday and Thursday, may return to action. If both players are able to play this weekend, Whittington likely would take a step back in terms of…read more

  • Set for limited practice Wednesday

    Rams head coach Sean McVay said Whittington (shoulder) will be a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

    Analysis: Whittington emerged from a Week 5 loss to the Packers with a shoulder injury, but even with a Week 6 bye to recover, he won't be able to handle a full allotment of practice reps to begin this week. He thus will have two more chances to get back to full participation before the Rams potentially tag him with a designation for Sunday's game versus the Raiders. There's a chance Cooper Kupp (ankle) returns to action this weekend, but if he doesn't and Whittington is active, the rookie sixth-round…read more

  • Dealing with shoulder issue

    Rams head coach Sean McVay said Monday that Whittington is contending with a shoulder issue following Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Packers, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: On the plus side, McVay noted that Whittington's availability following the Rams' Week 6 bye shouldn't be affected by the issue. That said, the wideout's status will be worth tracking once the team returns to practice ahead of an Oct. 20 home contest against the Raiders. Whittington has led the Rams with a 13-151-0 line on 18 targets over the past two weeks, but he could lose out on some looks if Cooper Kupp (ankle) and/or Puka Nacua (knee) are able to return to the lineup coming out of the bye…read more

  • Career-best showing

    Whittington recorded seven receptions on 10 targets for 89 yards in Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Packers.

    Analysis: Whittington had a slow start to the game, as he had just one catch for seven yards at halftime. However, his role grew as the Rams went into catch-up mode in the final quarter when he managed three catches for 43 yards and a 31-yard reception immediately after halftime for his longest gain of the day. Whittington has stepped up in the absence of Cooper Kupp (ankle) to record a combined 18 targets in the last two games, though Kupp could return in Week 7 after the team's Week 6 bye. That would…read more

  • 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.

  • Makes three catches

    Whittington caught all three of his targets for 28 yards during Sunday's 27-24 victory against San Francisco.

    Analysis: Whittington's snap share actually decreased compared to Week 2, with the sixth-round rookie only on the field for 22 snaps on offense. The former Texas Longhorn managed to be productive with his three targets, including a 15-yard catch to open the second half. With Demarcus Robinson, Tutu Atwell and Tyler Johnson operating as the top three wideouts with Puka Nacua (knee) and Cooper Kupp (ankle) out, Whittington may struggle to earn enough volume to stay fantasy relevant.

  • Prepping for key role

    Whittington is preparing for a larger role with Puka Nacua (knee) on injured reserve and Cooper Kupp (ankle) likely out for multiple weeks, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

    Analysis: Whittington barely played Week 1 and didn't get much playing time in the first half of Sunday's 41-10 loss at Arizona, but he then played every snap on offense in the second half, finishing with two catches for 22 yards on two targets. He seems to be ahead of Tutu Atwell in the pecking order and may thus join Demarcus Robinson and Tyler Johnson as full-time players this Sunday against the 49ers. While expectations for the rookie sixth-round pick should be modest for now, he drew considerable…read more

    Whittington secured both of his targets for 22 yards during Sunday's 41-10 loss to the Cardinals.

    Analysis: A week removed from being on the field for just two snaps on offense, the sixth-round rookie out of Texas was on the field for 26 against Arizona. Whittington managed to turn a short pass from Matthew Stafford into a big 22-yard gain in the third quarter and was on the field for significantly more plays than fellow backup Tutu Atwell, who saw just 10 snaps on offense. With Cooper Kupp (ankle) possibly missing time and Puka Nacua (knee) still on IR, Whittington may get an opportunity to shine…read more

  • May benefit from Nacua injury

    Whittington could see an expanded role after the Rams placed Puka Nacua (knee) on injured reserve Wednesday.

    Analysis: A rookie sixth-round pick, Whittington was the subject of considerable hype this summer but played only two snaps on offense in a 26-20 overtime loss to the Lions in Week 1. Whittington at least made himself noticeable with a one-yard touchdown run wiped out by a penalty, a 20-yard kickoff return and a tackle on special teams. The door has now been cracked open for Whittington to take on a more substantial role on offense with Nacua out for at least four games. He may still be fourth in line…read more

  • Leads team in receiving yardage

    Whittington secured five of eight targets for 52 yards during Saturday's 13-9 victory against the Chargers.

    Analysis: Despite playing in just 36 of the Rams' 63 snaps on offense, Whittington led the team in receiving yards and was tied with Xavier Smith (who played 59 snaps) for targets and receptions. The rookie out of Texas has been solid through two preseason games with an 11-126-0 line over 82 snaps on offense. Head coach Sean McVay generally keeps his starters on the bench through the preseason, but Whittington may simply be on the field to get some valuable reps in before his rookie campaign begins.…read more

  • Shines in preseason opener

    Whittington caught six of nine targets for 74 yards in Sunday's 13-12 preseason win over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: The 2024 sixth-round pick led the Rams in catches, targets and receiving yards, including a 30-yard gain on the team's opening drive, but that performance came during a game in which Cooper Kupp, Puka Nacua (knee), Demarcus Robinson and Tutu Atwell were all sitting out. Whittington has been making a strong impression at training camp and is on course to claim a spot on the 53-man roster, but he's still unlikely to see much action early in the regular season.

  • Impressing teammates

    Whittington took some first-team reps last week, with teammate Cooper Kupp noting that the rookie is "pretty special" and "so impressive," Cameron DeSilva of Rams Wire reports.

    Analysis: Whittington was a top recruit for Texas back in 2019 and doesn't lack for size (6-foot-1, 205 pounds) or strength (18 bench press reps), but he lasted until Round 6 of the 2024 Draft after being overshadowed by early draft picks in the Longhorns offense throughout his college career. He never drew more than 72 targets in a season, and a hamstring injury this spring prevented him from running a 40-yard dash, which meant he didn't have an opportunity to alleviate concerns about a lack of speed.…read more

  • Participating in OTAs

    Whittington (hamstring) was spotted working out Tuesday during Rams' OTA session, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: Whittington had been nursing a hamstring injury since early March, but he now seems to have moved past the issue. The 2024 sixth-round pick had an injury-riddled career at Texas, but he was still able to record 1,757 receiving yards and five touchdowns throughout his five years in college. Now that Whittington is healthy, he can compete for a depth spot in the Rams' wide receiver room this offseason.
