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.
What They're Saying
Here are some glowing words from HC Sean McVay (via Rams Wire):
“I've been super impressed with him,” McVay said of the second-year pro. “He's done such a great job. You look at a guy that came in and was mature beyond his years as a rookie last year. He's got the ability to play all three spots. He can really compete in the run game and I think he's really continuing to increase his route volume.
He’s played really well. He's strong. He's so conscientious. He's just one of those guys that you don't bet against. He's a good football player. You can't have enough guys like that. We love J-Whitt.”
2025 Fantasy Football Impact
Whittington will enter the season competing with Tutu Atwell for No. 3 WR snaps. Even if he beats out Atwell, the passing game will run through Puka Nacua and Davante Adams.
Now, Nacua’s injury history suggests there could be some spot-start opportunities for Whittington this season. So keep him in mind as a late-round option in leagues of 14-16+ teams.
