BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 27% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: After weeks of struggle, Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell got back on track against Arizona in Week 12, catching three passes for 76 yards. It was the first time since Week 3 that Atwell has finished with more than 50 receiving yards.
Early in the year, it looked liked Atwell was on his way to a breakout campaign, but things fell apart, especially once Cooper Kupp was back on the field. Atwell just hasn't really been able to make much of an impact.
Could this week's performance be a sign of something to come for Atwell? Probably not, to be honest. He was targeted just three times and played only 36% of the team's offensive snaps, which was actually his lowest rate all season. Demarcus Robinson ended up playing more than Atwell did.
However, he did record a pair of 20-plus-yard receptions in the game, so maybe the Rams will try to take advantage of his big-play abilities. He's worth a speculative add at this point, even if the chances that Atwell had another game like this are fairly slim at this point in the season after weeks of poor showings.
