The Los Angeles Rams enjoyed a strong Week 6 win over the Arizona Cardinals, fueled by a big game from Cooper Kupp in his second game back from injury.
With Kupp back and Puka Nacua thriving in his rookie season, fantasy managers are starting to wonder whether they should roster any other Rams pass-catchers.
Can Tutu Atwell be a reliable option in fantasy football? Can I drop Tutu Atwell ahead of Week 7? It's time to answer these key questions.

Can Tutu Atwell Be A Reliable Fantasy Option?
Atwell enjoyed a strong start to the season, totaling 22 catches, 270 yards, and one touchdown through the first four weeks. Even amidst Nacua's historic start, Atwell carved out a solid role and proved himself as a viable WR3/FLEX option.
When Kupp returned in Week 5, Atwell maintained a high snap share (89 percent in Week 5 and 88 percent in Week 6) but saw his production and volume drop significantly. Los Angeles suddenly features a crowded passing attack, and although Atwell has managed to stay on the field, Stafford simply hasn't looked his way as much because Kupp and Nacua routinely get open and make plays happen.
Given his tertiary position at wide receiver on Los Angeles' depth chart, Atwell is difficult to trust in fantasy football. Very few teams can support three fantasy-relevant receivers, and the Rams are not one of those squads.
Can I Drop Tutu Atwell in Fantasy Football?
At this point, there's no benefit in holding Atwell on your bench. Although he hasn't played poorly, his weekly ceiling is relatively low as long as Kupp and Nacua are healthy.
With the exception of very deep leagues, Atwell can be dropped and replaced by other players with higher upside.
