News
- Atwell caught one of two targets for 19 yards during Monday night's 28-6 win over the Giants.
Atwell remained an afterthought in the offense, even with Puka Nacua (hip) unavailable, and only played 11 of the team's 62 offensive snaps. He ranked behind Konata Mumpfield (43), Davante Adams (40) and Xavier Smith (26) at wide receiver in offensive snaps, and even if Nacua remains inactive for a Week 3 tilt versus Denver, Atwell will have limited appeal.
RotoWire via ESPN - Atwell (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday's tilt against the 49ers in Melbourne, Australia, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.
Atwell was with the Dolphins during the offseason until the Rams traded for him Aug. 27, though he should be fairly well-versed in the team's playbook after spending each of the past five campaigns with Los Angeles. It seemed Atwell could have a fairly big role in the Dolphins' thin wideout corps, but now that he's back with the Rams, he'll be competing with the likes of Konata Mumpfield, Xavier Smith and Jordan Whittington for playing time (and active status) behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams. It remains to be seen if Nacua will be suspended by the league at some point; if that were to happen, Atwell could move into a more significant role.
RotoWire via ESPN - Atwell was traded to the Rams on Thursday in exchange for running back Jarquez Hunter, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Atwell joined the Rams over the offseason after spending five seasons with the Rams, but he will return to his old stomping grounds before the regular season gets underway. He will compete with the likes of Jordan Whittington and Konata Mumpfield for snaps behind starters Puka Nacua (groin) and Davante Adams.
RotoWire via ESPN - Atwell is listed with the second-team offense on the Dolphins' first unofficial depth chart of training camp, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Fellow wide receivers Malik Washington, Jalen Tolbert and rookie third-round pick Caleb Douglas composed the first team, while rookie fifth-rounder Kevin Coleman (undisclosed) and Jalen Reagor joined Atwell on the second unit. Depth charts at this time of year need to be taken with a grain of salt, but Washington, Tolbert and Atwell seemed to have separated themselves as the top three WRs through the first week of camp, so Douglas getting listed ahead of Atwell is curious. In the end, how Atwell and Douglas fare in the preseason will carry more weight in determining who gets more regular-season reps in three-wide sets.
