Los Angeles Rams
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

Leading receiver in loss

January 5, 2025
Whittington caught three of four targets for 86 yards while rushing twice for 12 yards in Sunday's 30-25 loss to Seattle.
ANALYSIS
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.
