Xavier Smith was not targeted in Los Angeles' NFC Championship loss to the Seahawks.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 season.
Rams declared WR Tutu Atwell, CB Derion Kendrick, RB Jarquez Hunter, S Tanner Ingle, TE Nick Vannett and OT DJ Humphries inactive for the Divisional Round against the Bears.Typically a valuable, role-playing field stretcher, Atwell just hasn't been able to crack the Rams' loaded skill corps rotation this season. Now 26 years old, it's possible healthy-scratched Atwell has played his final game for the Rams as he heads to free agency this spring.
