Los Angeles Rams will keep receiver Tutu Atwell on a 1-year, $10 million deal, AP source says

Associated Press  

LOS ANGELES — Receiver Tutu Atwell has agreed to return to the Los Angeles Rams on a one-year deal for $10 million, a person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press on Thursday. Atwell started 14 games in 2023, but he has otherwise struggled to get consistent playing time among the Rams’ top three receivers despite contributing consistently whenever he was healthy. Although Atwell never complained about his usage by coach Sean McVay, he was widely expected to leave the Rams in free agency in a bid to get more playing time elsewhere. Instead, Atwell will provide continuity alongside Puka Nacua as the Rams almost certainly move on without longtime star receiver Cooper Kupp.
