Rams' Jordan Whittington: Early favorite for WR3 role?
Whittington looks like the early leader in the competition for the Rams' No. 3 receiver job, according to Cameron DaSilva of Rams Wire.
We've heard this before at a similar time of the year, and while Whittington has seen a few opportunities as the No. 3 receiver, it's rarely amounted to much in terms of routes and targets. The job bounced around between a slew of players last year, including Xavier Smith and Konata Mumpfield, both of whom are still on the team. The Rams also have rookie sixth-round pick CJ Daniels as a dark horse candidate for the job. In any case, the offense likely will use a lot of multi-TE formations, limiting the WR3's snap and route shares.

Rams' Jordan Whittington: Competing for depth spot
Whittington will enter training camp competing for the Rams' No. 3 wide reciever role behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.
A sixth-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, Whittington saw his snap count on offense increase in his sophomore campaign, but that didn't result in increased production as he finished the 2025 regular season with 18 catches on 25 targets for 171 yards across 17 games. His proficiency on special teams and as a blocker will keep him on the field, but he'll be competing in training camp with Xavier Smith, Konata Mumpfield, CJ Daniels and Tyler Scott for the top spot behind the dynamic duo of Nacua and Adams.

Whittington (chest) was cleared to return to Sunday's NFC Championship Game loss to the Seahawks.
Whittington suffered a chest injury late in the third quarter of Sunday's 31-27 loss to Seattle but was given the green light to return in the fourth quarter. The second-year pro played 19 snaps (three on offense, 16 on special teams) and returned five kickoffs for 116 yards. Whittington ended the 2025 regular season with 18 catches (on 25 targets) for 171 yards along with 434 yards on 17 kickoff returns across 17 games.

Rams' Jordan Whittington: Exits NFCCG with chest injury
Whittington (chest) is questionable to return to Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Seahawks, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.
It's not clear when Whittington suffered the injury, but he is being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game. Xavier Smith and Konata Mumpfield should handle kickoff return duties for as long as Whittington is out of the game.

Rams' Jordan Whittington: Trending towards playing Sunday
Whittington (knee) was not listed on the Rams' injury report Wednesday, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
Whittington sat out the Wild Card Round due to a knee injury he suffered in Week 18 versus the Cardinals, but it now appears he'll be ready to go for the Divisional Round against the Bears. However, as long as first-team All Pro Puka Nacua and veteran Davante Adams are available, there probably won't be room for the Rams' other receivers to draw many targets.

Rams' Jordan Whittington: Missing wild-card round
Whittington (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Panthers in the wild-card round.
Whittington was sidelined for all three of the Rams' practices this week, leading to him being ruled out Thursday. With Davante Adams back from his hamstring injury, there likely won't be many targets to go around behind Puka Nacua and Adams, with Konata Mumpfield, Xavier Smith and Tutu Atwell left to compete for those looks among wide receivers. Blake Corum is a candidate to return kickoffs in Whittington's absence.

Rams' Jordan Whittington: Undergoes MRI for knee injury
Rams head coach Sean McVay said Monday that Whittington will have an MRI to determine the severity of his knee injury, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Whittington suffered a knee injury in the Rams' Week 18 win over the Cardinals and was unable to return. The 25-year-old's status for the team's wild-card rematch against the Panthers is unclear. Tutu Atwell and Xavier Smith will likely see more reps if Whittington is unable to return for the first round of the playoffs.

Rams' Jordan Whittington: Won't return Sunday
Whittington (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
Whittington was taken to the locker room after injuring his right knee, and medical staff have deemed his injury severe enough for him to not return to Sunday's game. Tutu Atwell and Xavier Smith will see more snaps at wide receiver the rest of the way, but Whittington is now in jeopardy of missing the wild-card round of the NFC playoffs.

Rams' Jordan Whittington: Leaves game due to knee injury
Whittington (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
Per Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register, Whittington came out of the blue medical tent with a brace on his right knee and was testing it out before eventually being taken to the locker room. Xavier Smith and Tutu Atwell would be in line for more snaps on offense if Whittington is unable to return, and in that scenario, Blake Corum would also serve as the Rams' primary returner on kickoffs.

Rams' Jordan Whittington: Returns three kicks in defeat
Whittington returned three kicks for 80 yards during Monday's 27-24 loss to the Falcons.
For the third time in the last five games, Whittington failed to draw a target on offense. Konata Mumpfield and Xavier Smith have taken over as the primary backups behind Puka Nacua with Davante Adams (hamstring) still nursing an injury, and Whittington tied with Tutu Atwell with just 13 snaps on offense. It's likely that Whittington's primary role for the Rams will continue to be as a kick returner again in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Cardinals.

Rams' Jordan Whittington: Makes single grab in defeat
Whittington secured his only target for 19 yards and returned two kicks for 41 yards during Thursday's 38-37 overtime loss to the Seahawks.
The absence of Davante Adams (knee/hamstring) didn't lead to an expanded role for Whittington, as he took the field for just 15 snaps on offense. His one contribution to the game was impactful, however, as his lone catch came on third down and helped push the Rams in range for a chip shot Harrison Mevis field goal. Whittington's usage has remained steady in the past four weeks and shows no signs of moving towards fantasy relevance before the Rams take a trip to Atlanta for a Monday night showdown in Week 17.
