Could 2022 be the year Tutu Atwell breaks out and shows why the Los Angeles Rams drafted him in the second round? After a disappointing rookie season, Atwell has stood out to Sean McVay during OTAs and the Rams’ offseason workout program as a whole.
He’s coming back from a season-ending shoulder injury, but McVay says Atwell has looked good and “by no means is the book written” on him.
In practice on Wednesday, the Rams shared a clip of several receivers making catches in the corner of the end zone. Some were more difficult grabs than others, like Atwell’s toe-tapping snag for what would’ve been a touchdown.

Yes, it’s only OTAs and he caught the pass against air, not a cornerback. But it’s encouraging to see him go up aggressively and to show the awareness to come down inbounds.
Hopefully he’s able to stay healthy and provide the Rams a spark as a speedy deep threat on the outside.
