Well, that's the move for McCreary. Let's hope that Whittington and Mumpfield can step up in Tutu's absence.

I think we'll also continue to see more Ferguson as his combo of speed and height can approximate some of what Tutu can do when considering stretching the field in a way those other two can't.

Yes, of course his speed doesn't approximate Tutu's but his height and his speed allow him to be "open" downfield in a way those other two will not be able to get.

Puka, Davante, Whittington, Mumpfield, XSmith plus 4 tight ends and 2 RBs. We ought to do okay.

And eventually Jarquez Hunter (I gotta think he'll get time eventually), Tru Edwards and Brennan Presley; they looked outstanding in the preseason. Maybe they're for next year, but I think they'll be finds as well.
 
And that is why I would not have paid 10M for Tutu

He is just too small to take the punishment of playing over 20 snaps a game.

I know the Rams needed to clear a roster spot, but I wonder if this is a move made for another move by Trader Les.

Just putting it out there but if the offense sputters while Tutu is out, think of what having him on the field does to spacing in WR routes with his speed regardless of whether he's getting the ball.

They may also gain a nice comp pick by holding on to him. And he is still a dangerous receiver for the playoffs and you could even say kinda clutch. I'd keep him. And I think Tutu will do very well for KC or the Bills or some other team that needs a deep threat. Who knows what Snead is up to though?

They just had their highest scoring output of the season with Tutu barely seeing the field

With Tutu down for a bit, the red carpet has been rolled out for someone to step up and take advantage of it.
Who will it be?
Or will it be played like it was in the Jags game ........ a 'spread it around' approach with the game planning again?
I expect that the latter will be the plan, and see who can make a play.
 
Five wide receivers game-day active is a little light ... although it was just five against the Jaguars ...

Factor in that Nacua is coming-off an injury and Smith and Whittington are the primary returners.

Wonder if Presley or Edwards will be on the field on Sunday ... Practice Squad players can be called-up for a few games over the course of the season, and then revert back to the PS after the game.

Damn, I am having a boring day.

Tutu had amazing hands, killer speed and showed to be clutch.

But is criminally underutilized by McVay and can’t stay healthy.

Wherever he goes, PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY, don’t let him go to an NFC WEST team!!!
