Look: DeSean Jackson gives Tutu Atwell a shoutout on social media

The Rams drafted Tutu Atwell the same year they signed DeSean Jackson, adding a lot of speed to their offense in 2021. Neither panned out in their first season in Los Angeles, but Atwell has certainly taken some major steps in the right direction this year.

Jackson is taking notice, too.

The former Rams receiver shared a photo of himself and Atwell on social media, calling Tutu a “Yung Bull.” Jackson was on the sideline before the Rams’ game against the 49ers this past Sunday, showing support for his hometown team and one of his former teammates.

Atwell may not be the second coming of Jackson, but he certainly has some similar traits as a speedy, undersized receiver who can stretch the field vertically. But as we’ve seen this season, Atwell is more than just a deep threat.

He’s doing a little bit of everything for Los Angeles and ranks eighth in the NFL in receiving yards (196) because of it.
