"Tutu Atwell appeared to be the forgotten man. After signing a one-year, $10-million contract, he seemed to be virtually ignored while playing in the shadow of stars Puka Nacua and Davante Adams. Atwell went into Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts with only one target in each of the first three games. He got two targets against the Colts. But the speedy Atwell made one count."
"With less than two minutes left, he broke free, caught a midrange pass from Matthew Stafford and turned it into an 88-yard touchdown that gave the Rams a 27-20 victory before 71,257 at SoFi Stadium. "Throughout this season, I'm mentally ready for a game like this." Atwell said. "Just wait for my number, because it's something I've been doing the whole year, all these years that I've been here.""
Tutu Atwell caught an 88-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter to lift the Rams to a 27-20 win over the Colts. Atwell had seen only five targets through four games but turned two targets into a game-winning play. Matthew Stafford overcame early struggles with a trademark two-minute drive and threw touchdown passes to Puka Nacua and Davante Adams. Puka Nacua finished with 13 catches for 170 yards. Kam Curl intercepted two passes. The victory improved the Rams to 3-1 and set up a Thursday night matchup with the San Francisco 49ers.
