Rams to Activate Tutu Atwell From IR for Week 15 vs. Lions

The move closes his 21-day window as the team reaches its Week 16 decision deadline.

Overview

  • Head coach Sean McVay said "he'll be up," confirming Atwell will be activated this week and is expected to be available against Detroit.
  • Atwell went on injured reserve after a Week 7 hamstring injury in London and had his practice window opened on November 26.
  • He missed six games despite being healthy for weeks as the staff weighed 48-man game-day balance and special-teams groupings.
  • In 2025 he has four catches for 164 yards and one touchdown, while Xavier Smith (11-173-0) handled the deep role and credited Atwell's mentorship and energy.
  • The former second-round pick signed a fully guaranteed one-year, $10 million deal in March, and the Rams went 5-1 during his absence.
