Rams news: Tutu Atwell, Hawaii karaoke and other stories for Cardinals fans
A look at what has been going on with the Cardinals' NFC West rival Rams.
We have made it through another week in the NFL offseason, and that means we will check in with the Arizona Cardinals' NFC West rivals. What is new with the LA Rams, San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks?
Here are a few stories about the Rams from the last week that Cardinals fans should know.
Tutu time?
The Rams cut receiver Cooper Kupp and saw Demarcus Robinson leave in free agency. Former second-round draft pick Tutu Atwell now has the opportunity to take over as the Rams' No. 3 receiver. Head coach Sean McVay believes that Atwell is "ready to ascend."
Rookie TE compared to Rams star
The Rams drafted tight end Terrance Ferguson in the second round. He is the highest-drafted tight end by the Rams ever. He was compared to one of the Rams' greats from the past, Ernie Conwell.
Rams concerned about LT Alaric Jackson
The Rams re-signed Jackson but he has blood clots in his legs for the second time. This leaves the Rams with "some question marks" about whether he will be ready to play in September. They signed former Cardinals first-round pick D.J. Humphries soon after they learned of Jackson's condition.
Karaoke in Hawaii
The Rams held their minicamp in Maui last week. Apparently, they had a little fun, which included some karaoke singing.
Stafford can move up all-time lists
Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is 10th all-time in both career passing yards and career touchdown passes. By the end of 2025, he could move up three spots in passing yards and, with a special season, two in touchdown passes.

Is DeAndre Hopkins the Ravens' 'Missing Piece'?
Is DeAndre Hopkins the Ravens' 'Missing Piece'? originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Last season the 12-5 Baltimore Ravens featured one of the most complete rosters in football on both sides of the ball. Although their season was cut short in heartbreaking fashion in the AFC Divisional Round, they have all the right reasons to believe another deep run - possibly further - could be in the cards in 2025. Advertisement Baltimore's time to win is now. Because of this, general manager Eric DeCosta has pulled out all the stops in free agency to fill the team with as many high-caliber veterans as possible in hopes of finally putting the puzzle together. Earlier in the offseason, the Ravens signed star wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins, one of the game's most accomplished pass-catchers and a consummate professional in the locker room. D-Hop joins exciting young receivers Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman to form a trio that could compete with the likes of the best receiving corps in franchise history. And it doesn't hurt when a two-time MVP in Lamar Jackson is throwing them the ball. At minicamp, some Ravens teammates mentioned their observations from the brief time they've had with Hopkins and how he has gelled with the organization. "I like 'D-Hop'. I've gotten to have some conversations with him. He is 'Mr. Contested Catch.' That is for sure," said cornerback Marlon Humphrey. "Just having a conversation with him, I thought it was really humbling. Advertisement "We asked him, me and one of the strength coaches, 'What do you think about the team from the outside looking in since you've been on other teams?' And he said, 'It seems like there's been a piece that's been missing. I could be that addition. I could not be that addition.'" Hopkins, 33, may recognize that he's on the downward slope of his career. He enters Year 13 in the NFL a part of his third team in three years. The former All-Pro was traded to the Kansas City Chiefs midway through last season. He wasn't able to be the missing piece for Patrick Mahomes & Co., but the Ravens still believe he is capable of that role in Baltimore. With a 1,000-yard season as recent as 2023, the capability is still there. On Baltimore, however, he'll likely fill a role as a complementary piece around the Ravens' stellar run game and loaded arsenal of pass targets. Advertisement It sounds like Hopkins has humbly taken ownership of this position as he does everything he can to contribute to what would be his first Super Bowl win. "To hear a veteran guy, All-Pro guy and Pro Bowl guy say he could be, or he could not be [the piece that's missing], to me, that was extremely humbling. I feel that he fits the Ravens mold, and I think he'll fit right in," Humphrey added. Related: Could DeAndre Hopkins Someday Own an NFL Team?

Ravens' John Harbaugh Squat Goes Viral
Ravens' John Harbaugh Squat Goes Viral originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh will turn 63 years old in September, and while his football playing days have been long over, his workout routine might still impress you. Advertisement Harbaugh has led the Ravens to 184 total wins since he was hired in 2008, the third-most wins for a head coach over that time. He's also surpassed Brian Billick for the most wins by a Ravens coach in franchise history. Harbaugh has posted just two losing seasons. But all of those thing might not be the most impressive accomplishment by the Toledo, Ohio native. In a video posted by the NFL on its X account and credited to Alison Harbaugh on Instagram, Harbaugh is shown squatting 405 pounds. That's impressive, but especially for a 62-year-old head coach in the NFL. Harbaugh's 22 playoff game appearances since 2008 are the second-most, and he's the only head coach in NFL history to win a postseason game in six of his first seven seasons of his coaching career. Advertisement Harbaugh earned a degree in political science at Miami (OH), where he won the Football Scholar Athlete Award as a defensive back for the Redhawks. He earned his master's in physical education at Western Michigan. The Ravens' coach played at Pioneer High School in Ann Arbor, Michigan, before playing collegiately. The Ravens are coming off a 12-5 regular season where they dominated some of the best teams in the league. They also suffered a couple of head-scratching losses before bowing out in the Divisional Round to the Buffalo Bills 27-25. Related: Is DeAndre Hopkins the Ravens' 'Missing Piece'?
