Atwell (concussion), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders, is considered unlikely to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Atwell never upgraded to full practice participation this week and doesn't appear to have passed the final phase of the five-step concussion protocol -- gaining clearance from an independent neurologist -- so he looks on track to miss his first game of the season. Official word on Atwell's status will arrive when the Rams release their inactive list approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff. Assuming Atwell isn't available, Demarcus Robinson would likely serve as the Rams' No. 3 receiver behind Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua.
