Sixth-round rookie WR Jordan Whittington is being prepared to take on a variety of responsibilities in the Los Angeles Rams offense in 2024. (Source: Jourdan Rodrigue, The Athletic)

Fantasy Impact: Whittington is a versatile receiver, part of why he played so often in a talented Texas offense that featured two early-round rookie WRs in Xavier Worthy and Adonai Mitchell. He is tough and gritty and can serve as a blocker when needed as well. While saying he could be preparing to take on a Robert Woods role could lead to high expectations, he could be getting ready for a similar role, like the one WR Ben Skowronek (now a Houston Texan) played in recent seasons.

Fantasy Impact: Allen had a limited statistical output in his rookie year, catching 10 passes for 95 yards and a score, but he did see time on the field. He played 19% of offensive snaps and 26% of special teams snaps. Head coach Sean McVay prioritized TE depth in the offseason which could indicate further emphasis on multi-TE sets, which could lead to a role for Allen, albeit potentially not a fantasy-relevant one.

Fantasy Impact: The offseason pickup Parkinson plays perfectly into what HC Sean McVay values offensively, which is versatility. He serves as a pass catcher and a blocker, which could help him land a significant snap count early in the season while incumbent TE Tyler Higbee continues his recovery from injury. Parkinson could play a real role in the Rams offense, though it's also possible it's not a fantasy-relevant one.
