Shecky
Can't say I agree with you generalization here. Show me some footage. I just watched his tape in the Bronco game when he was miked up and he wasn't dinged after any of the plays I saw.
The regular season can't start soon enough when, hopefully, Tutu will get the chance to prove his doubters wrong. I'll own up to it if he is was some people think he is,
You're gonna have to go find footage yourself Shecky. I know I am not the only who saw how "gingerly" he got up after "most" hits he took. Others have posted about here too. If you think Tutu can hold up against bigger guys, more power to you. I don't see it happening.
Tutu looked fragile to me and many others. Just Google Tutu Atwell Bust and you will get PLENTY of results! lol
As I said, do you think Tutu could survive a jet sweep and a 310 lb DL falls on him? I don't! lol
For example, here is article that agree with a lot of his doubters and "echo" similar criticisms...

2021 NFL Draft potential bust no. 2: Tutu Atwell, Los Angeles Rams
2
Tutu Atwell
WR Los Angeles Rams
Arguably the most shocking pick amongst the first two rounds of the draft, most saw Tutu Atwell as a day three option.
While a fun player to watch in college, he was severely undersized and had questions about how he would hold up as a professional player. Those issues came into fruition, as Atwell played just 10 offensive snaps despite being the Rams’ second-round pick.
Atwell did get some work as a return man, but for a second-round pick and the Rams’ first pick of the draft, you ideally want more than that. Can he turn it around this year?
Possibly, but the odds of him seeing a lot of work doesn’t seem great. Atwell can only realistically be used out of the slot and Cooper Kupp primarily plays there. He may see his snaps increase, but it won’t be by a huge margin.
The NFL has seen the size requirements for receivers shrink over the past few years. One just has to look at Tyreek Hill as an example of that. Despite being undersized, he has excelled as a receiver.
Atwell doesn’t have that game-breaking speed though, and as a result, he can’t be counted on for much outside of being a return man. For a second-round pick, that is less than ideal.
#HelmetHornsMatter
“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.
“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
