BALLER MOVE: Sit in all leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4
ANALYSIS: Jordan Whittington was limited in Tuesday's practice and missed Monday's session, as reported by Adam Caplan.
With the Rams playing on a short week, there is a possibility that Whittington will not suit up. Even if he does, it is hard to trust him in fantasy football.
Just got done with my interview with Rams WR Puka Nacua. Only had 10 minutes.
Quick takeaways…
He’s chomping at the bit to get back in the field.
Has been impressed with Jordan Whittington this year.

Cooper Kupp is back, and Tutu Atwell has been seeing an expanded role. A banged-up Whittington is not worth the risk. When and if Kupp gets traded, Whittington's value would skyrocket.
Head coach Sean McVay did say Whittington might see a bit more of a workload against the Minnesota Vikings, as Sarah Barshop reported. Still, Whittington only played nine offensive snaps in Week 7 due to a shoulder injury.
With Kupp back in the mix, Whittington should be left on your bench, even if active.
UPDATE: Whittington is officially OUT

The wide receiver position has an advantage over the running back position in PPR scoring formats, typically. Receivers' main job of catching the football leads to them scoring more points per touch, and those WRs that consistently get high volume can produce great results with a strong floor. Not every WR is like this, though, […]
