Week 6 of the 2025 NFL season is already upon us and the action will continue on Sunday with the Los Angeles Rams making a cross-country trip to meet the Baltimore Ravens at 1 p.m. ET on FOX.

The Rams are coming off a mini bye week as the last time we saw them in action was in their 26-23 overtime loss to the 49ers last Thursday. Wide receiver Tutu Atwell lent a helping hand in the loss and he’s starting to emerge as a big-play threat for the offense

Below, we’ll go over Atwell’s outlook in fantasy football for Week 6.

Fantasy Football analysis: Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet

Atwell caught two of four targets for 72 yards in last Thursday’s loss to the 49ers. This came the week after the fifth-year veteran toasted the Colts for an 88-yard touchdown that put the Rams ahead late, so he’s starting to carve out a role as a home-run hitter for the offense. His ADOT of 19.67 air yards ranks sixth in the league heading into Week 6, so Matthew Stafford is looking to drop the bomb whenever he’s hunting for Atwell down field. We’ll see if this duo can get active in Baltimore on Sunday.

Start or sit in Week 6 Standard leagues?

Start. It’s open season for opposing offenses against a truly dreadful Baltimore defense. Name a defensive metric and the Ravens are at or near the bottom of the league, including yielding a league-high 177 points along with being just one of two teams to have already given up 2,000+ yards this season. Fantasy managers in standard leagues have the green light to take a risk by starting Atwell in a Flex spot as he could very well make a few explosive plays in this one.

Start or sit in Week 6 PPR leagues?

Sit. While Atwell could have a solid day in standard leagues, I don’t anticipate that he’ll get enough targets to warrant a start in PPR leagues. It’ll be tempting, by I’d recommend looking elsewhere this week.
