The Los Angeles Rams are looking for a new player to fair catch punts for the rest of the season. Sean McVay told reporters this week that Kyren Williams and Tutu Atwell are the leaders in the clubhouse to win a job that nobody really wants because it only comes with dire consequences and no upside.
The Rams have already released two punt returners during this season in Xavier Smith and Alex Bachman. It’s not that Williams or Atwell are in danger of being released, but they also don’t have anything to gain and that’s why the only real outcome left is to simply make sure you don’t muff or fumble the punt.
