Mumpfield had an eight-target game in Davante Adams’ hamstring-related absence and certainly appears to be the main backup wideout on the outside after the Rams picked him in the seventh round of last year’s draft. He finished the year with a 10/92/1 line. There’s not an obvious fantasy vacuum for him to step into even if he managed to be the main third receiver in 2026 — especially given how successful three tight-end looks were for the Rams this year. Still, he’s an interesting dynas ...26 January 2026
From Weeks 1-12, the 2024 sixth-round pick was Los Angeles’ No. 3 receiver and played 52.4 percent of the Rams’ snaps. His fantasy relevancy peaked when the Rams headed to London without Puka Nacua and Whittington managed to reward managers with a 2/9 dud. Over the final five games of the season, dealing with a knee injury, he managed just 44 offensive snaps. Whittington isn’t a must-hold in dynasty leagues at this point, but it’s possible he was simply not himself while trying to play h ...26 January 2026
What Smith did do was lose his footing on a punt return, letting the ball bounce off his chest and arms and right to the Seahawks. It immediately led to a touchdown in what finished as a four-point loss. Kyren Williams replaced Smith afterwards. Smith battled Tutu Atwell for a roster spot all season and eventually won out because of his work on special teams. Welp. An exclusive rights free agent in 2026, Smith was mostly a shot-play weapon and doesn’t figure to have a real fantasy role next se ...26 January 2026
Mevis finishes the year 12-of-13 on field goals — missing one against the Seahawks in Week 16 — and hit all 39 of his regular season extra point attempts. He was perfect in the playoffs on five field goals and nine extra-point attempts. The 23-year-old was a find for the Rams and should enter the starting kicker conversation in most fantasy leagues that use kickers in 2026.

If the last two playoff weeks made it seem like Adams was having trouble getting reacquainted with Matthew Stafford after a long hamstring-related layoff, this game certainly made it feel like the connection was back. Adams hauled in a dart that was just shy of the goal line, then cashed in with a red zone out. Adams led the league in receiving touchdowns despite not playing the last three weeks of the season, which both says something about how good the McVay passing offense was and how bad lea ...26 January 2026
Parkinson’s touchdown run finally ran out of steam over the past two weeks, but he ends the year with 43/408/8 in the regular season and another score in the playoffs. He did drop a third-down pass in this one, but was otherwise what we’ve come to expect. It’s hard to imagine that the Rams will phase him out of the offense altogether in 2026, the final year of his contract, but teams will probably have better answers for Los Angeles’ 3TE sets with a year of tape to pick over and Terrance ...26 January 2026
Allen went untargeted in the playoffs despite a strong snap share — he’s clearly the blocking tight end of the four-headed 3TE attack the Rams run. He enters the final year of his rookie contract in 2026 looking like a solid use of a roster spot for the Rams and someone fantasy managers should never, ever call on.26 January 2026
It’s an unsatisfying end to a season that looked to be trending up over his last three games, with a hamstring injury sandwiched around games of four, four, and five targets heading into this one. Ferguson probably won’t garner much offseason hype given the fact that the Rams very easily fed Puka Nacua and Davante Adams this year, but he has a shot to take a major step forward. He’s best-drafted as a high-end TE2 given the Rams’ 3TE shenanigans and our lack of a proof of concept for a bi ...26 January 2026
A free agent this offseason, the 33-year-old tight end certainly didn’t earn many targets for the Rams in 2025 despite 3TE looks being the norm. Some of that is Davante Adams and Puka Nacua, yes. Some of that is also just getting old. We’d bet on Higbee to get sniffs in free agency, but we’d be surprised if the lifelong Ram found a fantasy-favorable role in 2026.26 January 2026
Barner hasn’t crossed 50 yards since Week 11 and is mostly a touchdown-or-bust tight end for fantasy purposes, plus or minus a few tush pushes a game. There’s certainly little reason to expect him to expand on that role in Super Bowl LX.26 January 2026
We haven’t blurbed a Jake Bobo game in all of 2025, as the third-year receiver had just two catches for 20 yards in the regular season. Little did we know it’d all be building to Honkin’ On Bobo in the NFC Championship game, as he scored following Xavier Smith’s disastrous punt flub while the entire Rams defense followed Jaxon Smith-Njigba across the field. It’d be hard to count on Bobo in Super Bowl LX DFS, but if he got there, it would be very funny.26 January 2026
Answering a taunting flag on Riq Woolen by immediately toasting him for a touchdown in the third quarter, Nacua continued his reign of terror against the Seahawks. It was, amazingly, his fifth game of the season and playoffs to go over 160 yards. He’ll enter next year as a surefire WR1 and almost undoubtedly one of the first three receivers off the board after his league-leading 129 catches for 1715 yards and 10 touchdowns. There is some fragility here in the sense that Matthew Stafford is (ev ...26 January 2026
Corum took a major step forward in his second season, establishing himself as a weekly threat for 10 touches in a good offense. The rushing line improved from 58/207/0 to 145/756/6, and he had 13.3 rushing EPA to Kyren Williams’ 0.4. That’s the good news. The bad news is that Corum’s role has no real room to grow without an injury to Williams, as Williams signed a long-term extension in August that tied him to the Rams for the near-term future. It leaves Corum as more of an RB3 searching f ...26 January 2026
Smith-Njigba opened with a sensational one-handed catch in what would be a masterpiece game from both the third-year receiver and offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak. Kubiak schemed Smith-Njigba wide open out of the backfield for his touchdown, and continued to pepper him with short slants against zone and play-action routes late. Smith-Njigba hauled in only one catch in the fourth quarter, but it was an outstanding second-and-10 route that left his defender in the dust and set Seattle up to drai ...26 January 2026
Kupp had 3/39 and 3/23 against the Rams in his two regular season games against them, but saved his lone touchdown for the NFC title game, taking a quick curl through a few zone defenders for a score. He added a first-down catch on Seattle’s final drive that he just narrowly appeared to cross the first-down marker for after beating his man handily on a crossing route. Kupp’s probably Seattle’s true “No. 2" target, but hasn’t separated himself enough from the pack to pay a premium for i ...26 January 2026
Sam Darnold dropped a 51-yard haymaker to Shaheed in the first quarter and his other two targets were incomplete but eventful. Cobie Durant knocked one of them out, and the other was a borderline uncalled DPI on the sideline late in the game. It’s hard to say that the Seahawks didn’t make the right move trading for Shaheed, but we’d love to see them actually integrate him more into the game plan than they have. Then again, hard to complain about much with that offense as things stand headi ...26 January 2026
He played 42 of Seattle’s 67 snaps, yielding 23 to George Holani as the main backup. Walker was absolutely incredible in the first quarter, putting Rams LB Omar Speights in a blender to create a major carry. He managed just 11 carries for 27 yards in the final three frames, but was heavily involved in the passing game as the Seahawks were able to create opportunities for him to weave in and out of traffic in space. He heads into Super Bowl LX as Seattle’s comfortable No. 1 back and arguably ...26 January 2026
He played 23 snaps to Cam Akers’ one, so Holani looks like a safe bet to be Seattle’s backup runner in Super Bowl LX. Holani had 15 receiving yards in the regular season and 27 here, so it seems like the Seahawks trust him to handle passing-down responsibilities in Zach Charbonnet’s absence. He might be a reasonable punt play in DFS lineups in two weeks.26 January 2026
It was yet another game where the Rams struggled on the ground, but where Williams’ touchdown-catching prowess was enough to keep him in the scorebook as he got lost on a mesh concept near the end zone. Williams lost his volume back role this year as the Rams gradually started introducing more Blake Corum to the offense in October. He wound up playing 68 percent of the snaps on the season, but it was 63 percent after Week 6. He made up for it by scoring eight touchdowns down the stretch. With ...26 January 2026
Darnold had little help from the running game – 64 total yards from his backs – and still managed to shred the Rams defense. He was turnover-free for the first time all season against Los Angeles. Seattle’s pass protection held up amazingly well against the Rams front. Klint Kubiak trusted Darnold to hit several throws on the final drive to drain clock and Darnold managed a third-and-7 conversion to Cooper Kupp as well as a 14-yard pass to Jaxon Smith-Njigba on second-and-10 that all but s ...
