The Miami Dolphins selected Texas Tech WR Caleb Douglas in Round 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Douglas boasts an enticing combination of size and athleticism. He’s 6’4, 206 pounds with a 4.39-second 40 time, registering a 9.50 Relative Athletic Score. Those gifts never resulted in big college production, though. Douglas totaled just 21 catches across his freshman and sophomore seasons at Florida before transferring to Texas Tech. He finished second on the team in catches (60), receiving yards (877), and TDs (6) in 2024 but averaged a middling 2.00 yards per route. Douglas’ production and efficiency declined this past year. He posted a 54-846-7 line on 1.77 yards per route – 35th among the 49 WRs invited to the Combine. Douglas is a legit vertical threat and flashes plus ball skills. But his hands are inconsistent and can get pushed around by physical CBs. There’s enough here to keep Douglas on the fantasy radar, but he’s a long shot to emerge as more than a spike-week, best-ball target.

Rams WR Davante Adams (hamstring, knee) is listed as doubtful for Thursday night's game vs. the Seahawks. The team is keeping the door open for Adams to play if that hammy makes a big improvement over the next 24 hours, but he's clearly a long shot. It's a huge loss for the Rams' passing game. Adams ranks second to WR Puka Nacua with 60 catches and 789 receiving yards but easily leads the team with 14 receiving scores. Los Angeles is left with WRs Konata Mumpfield, Tutu Atwell, Jordan Whittington, and Xavier Smith behind Nacua. TE Colby Parkinson might be the second-best bet for targets against Seattle. TEs Terrance Ferguson and Davis Allen could also play bigger roles in the passing game.

Rams WR Puka Nacua (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. We're not expecting him to play vs. the Jaguars this weekend but will continue to keep a close eye on him over the next few days. WR Tutu Atwell (hamstring) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. HC Sean McVay said earlier this week that he expects Atwell back for this one. He'd join Davante Adams and Jordan Whittington as Los Angeles' top three WRs.

Rams WR Puka Nacua will "likely" miss time with an ankle sprain, NFL Network reports. "It would make sense for Nacua to be out next week against the Jaguars, then LAR has a bye to regroup and assess," Ian Rapoport tweeted. It continues to sound like Nacua dodged a serious injury, and the Week 8 bye comes at a nice time. But fantasy owners should prepare to be without the stud WR for at least Week 7. Nacua's absence will knock Matt Stafford out of QB1 consideration. WR Davante Adams will get a significant boost in target upside, while WR Jordan Whittington could be a low-level spot starter. We'll see if WR Tutu Atwell is able to return after missing Week 6 with a hamstring injury.

Rams WR Tutu Atwell (hamstring) is inactive for today's game vs. the Ravens. That should leave Jordan Whittington as the clear No. 3 WR, but he'll remain well behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams in the pecking order.

Rams beat writer Cam DaSilva considers WR Jordan Whittington a potential breakout candidate in 2025. Whittington arrived last year as a 6th-round pick out of Texas, tallying 22 catches for 293 yards in 15 games.

The Rams surprised -- at least a bit -- by re-signing WR Tutu Atwell to a one-year, $10 million contract before he could reach unrestricted free agency this offseason. HC Sean McVay has since said that Atwell will be on the field "a lot more," which makes sense. But the team also added WR Davante Adams just three days after the Atwell deal. So it's fair to wonder how much room the 25-year-old wideout can actually find.

The Rams have agreed to a two-year deal with WR Davante Adams. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports he'll get $46 million, with $26 million of that guaranteed.

The Rams have agreed to a one-year deal with WR Tutu Atwell, paying him a guaranteed $10 million to keep the wideout from reaching free agency. Atwell has spent four seasons with the Rams since arriving as a second-round pick in 2021. According to Spotrac, the new contract ranks Atwell 27th among WRs in annual average as of this writing.

Rams WR Demarcus Robinson (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the 49ers. He only got in a limited practice on Wednesday. HC Sean McVay said earlier this week that he expected Robinson to be ready for this one, but we'll see when we get the Rams' inactives a little before 7 pm ET tomorrow. WR Tutu Atwell would likely soak up most of Robinson's snaps if he can't go.

Rams WR Jordan Whittington (shoulder) is out for Thursday night's game vs. the Vikings. It sure would have been nice of the Rams to have ruled him out last week. Instead, Whittington was active but ran 0 pass routes. His absence leaves Tutu Atwell, Demarcus Robinson, and Tyler Johnson behind Cooper Kupp against Minnesota.

Rams WR Cooper Kupp (ankle) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Raiders. He got in three limited practices this week, but the team is wisely being cautious with his return from this significant ankle injury. We’re expecting Kupp to play next week. His absence again leaves Jordan Whittington, Tutu Atwell, and Demarcus Robinson as the Rams’ top three WRs. See where they land in the Week 7 WR Rankings.

ESPN's Adam Schefter calls Rams WR Cooper Kupp (hamstring) "unlikely" to play vs. the Raiders today. "Rams still want to work out Kupp pre-game before making any decision about him," Schefter adds. We'll look for additional updates on Kupp, but he should be on fantasy benches for now. We won't get the Rams' inactives until a little before 3 pm ET. Schefter also confirms that WR Jordan Whittington (shoulder) is expected to play. He'll join Tutu Atwell and Demarcus Robinson as the Rams' top three WRs if Kupp is out.

Rams HC Sean McVay confirmed on Monday that WR Cooper Kupp (ankle) will not play vs. the Bears this weekend. Kupp has not been placed on IR, but we're unlikely to see him before the Rams return from their Week 6 bye.

Rams WR Cooper Kupp (ankle) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the 49ers. He avoided IR but is still looking at a multi-game absence. The Rams are down to Demarcus Robinson, Tyler Johnson, Jordan Whittington, and Tutu Atwell as their top four WRs. See where those guys land in our Week 3 Rankings.

Rams HC Sean McVay says WR Cooper Kupp is expected to miss “an extended period of time” and might hit IR, according to ESPN’s Sarah Barshop. If IR is just a maybe, that indicates the timeline sits around four games. With Puka Nacua already out, there’s clear opportunity the next few weeks for other Rams WRs and TE Colby Parkinson. You can also expect to not see QB Matthew Stafford high in our weekly rankings. Check your Free Agent Finder to see who might make sense for your situation

Rams WR Cooper Kupp injured his left ankle near the end of the first half of Sunday's game vs. the Cardinals. He's been deemed doubtful to return. We'll look for further updates on the injury, but this could be disastrous for a Rams team already without WR Puka Nacua for at least three more games -- and likely more. L.A. is now down to WRs Demarcus Robinson, Tyler Johnson, Tutu Atwell, and Jordan Whittington.

Rams HC Sean McVay said Monday that the team is placing WR Puka Nacua on IR after he aggravated his right knee injury in Sunday night's loss to the Lions, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports. Nacua is dealing with a PCL sprain that he reportedly hurt in a "more significant" way against Detroit.

Rams WR Puka Nacua injured a knee in the first half of Sunday night's game vs. the Lions and was ruled out at halftime. This appeared to be the same right knee that Nacua hurt on August 4, sidelining him for about three weeks. We'll look for further updates on his status going forward.
