The Miami Dolphins are signing free agent wide receiver Tutu Atwell to a one-year deal, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Thursday.
It’s a homecoming for Atwell, who is from Miami.
Atwell, a second-round pick in 2021, has spent the first five seasons of his NFL career with the Los Angeles Rams.

Atwell, 26, signed a one-year, $10 million contract with the Rams in March 2025 but had just six catches for 192 yards and a touchdown last season. Along with missing time because of a hamstring injury, he was kept off the field by the Rams’ move to using more 13 personnel (three tight ends on the field) rather than the 11 personnel (three wide receivers) common under head coach Sean McVay.
Atwell’s biggest play last season came in Week 4 against the Indianapolis Colts, when his 88-yard catch-and-run down the sideline for a touchdown gave the Rams the lead with less than two minutes remaining.
In 64 regular-season games in Los Angeles, Atwell had 105 catches for 1,535 yards and five touchdowns.
