Whittington secured both of his targets for 22 yards during Sunday's 41-10 loss to the Cardinals.
A week removed from being on the field for just two snaps on offense, the sixth-round rookie out of Texas was on the field for 26 against Arizona. Whittington managed to turn a short pass from Matthew Stafford into a big 22-yard gain in the third quarter and was on the field for significantly more plays than fellow backup Tutu Atwell, who saw just 10 snaps on offense. With Cooper Kupp (ankle) possibly missing time and Puka Nacua (knee) still on IR, Whittington may get an opportunity to shine with the Rams' receiving corps down to just four healthy players (Demarcus Robinson, Tyler Johnson, Whittington and Atwell) on the 53-man roster at the moment.
