Mumpfield logged 31 snaps (43% of offensive plays) against Las Vegas and received one of only two targets distributed among non-Puka Nacua receivers, converting it to one catch for 15 yards. Over 24 regular season games with the Rams, he has accumulated 584 snaps with 42 targets and 19 receptions for a 45% catch rate. The three in-house WR2 candidates (Mumpfield, Tutu Atwell, Jordan Whittington) have been targeted just 89 times out of 879 L.A. pass attempts, a paltry 10% target rate, indicating minimal offensive involvement.NegativeRoleOct 26, 2026
Konata Mumpfield played 31 snaps in the Rams' win over the Raiders, the most among the receiver rotation filling in for injured Davante Adams. Mumpfield was the only player in the rotation to be targeted, catching 1 of 2 targets for 15 yards.NegativeRoleOct 26, 2026
Mumpfield has been very disappointing given the ample opportunity afforded to him in the Rams offense, particularly in the context of replacing Davante Adams' production.PositiveBreakoutOct 21, 2026
Konata Mumpfield, a seventh-round pick in 2025, has 127 yards on eight catches through Week 6; Adams gave him a shoutout in the offseason as a receiver to watch out for, and now the second-year wideout gets to prove himself in the starting role. Mumpfield has 178 snaps compared to 107 for Jordan Whittington, demonstrating established snap share ahead of other depth options.PositiveRoleOct 21, 2026
Konata Mumpfield is the next man up to start in place of Davante Adams and needs to be a PRIORITY on waivers this week; he's the source's No. 2 target heading into Week 7. Mumpfield has 112 routes this season, 3rd among Rams WRs and 50+ ahead of the next WR. When Puka Nacua missed time against Denver in Week 3, he had 8 targets, 4 catches, 93 yards, and 1 touchdown, providing a comparable opportunity benchmark for Mumpfield's potential production.PositiveRoleOct 19, 2026
Among the replacement options the Rams will turn to following Davante Adams' injury, alongside Jordan Whittington and sixth-round rookie C.J. Daniels, as the team seeks to fill the void in a passing offense previously contained to Puka Nacua, Adams, and Tyler Higbee.NegativeValueOct 19, 2026
Mumpfield played 27 snaps (47% of plays) on Sunday. As part of a composite WR#3 role with Jordan Whittington, Mumpfield and Whittington have been on the field for 285 of 410 offensive plays (70%) with 20 targets and 10 catches combined. The source characterizes this as 'not a lot of return on investment' for an offense that wants to air it out.NegativeRoleOct 19, 2026
Second-year receiver Mumpfield earned a 68.6 PFF grade and took over the third receiver role from Tutu Atwell this week, catching both of his targets for 15 yards.NegativeInjuryOct 13, 2026
Played 6 snaps (7% of plays). Came into the game nicked up and was in and out, likely with the same shoulder problem. The source notes the Rams figured an injured Mumpfield was a better fit into the game plan than rookie CJ Daniels.NegativeInjuryOct 6, 2026
WR suffered a rotator cuff contusion during the Week 4 victory over Philadelphia; played 23 offensive snaps, catching one pass for seven yards on three targets. Head coach Sean McVay indicated Monday he was not particularly concerned about the injury, suggesting Mumpfield has a chance to avoid a significant absence. Availability will be monitored as the Rams prepare for Week 5 against Buffalo.NegativeInjuryOct 6, 2026

Mumpfield did not return to the Rams' Week 4 win over Philadelphia with a shoulder injury, sidelining the wide receiver for the remainder of the game.PositiveUsageSep 29, 2026
Mumpfield caught three straight completions from Stafford in Week 3's comeback drive, including a 48-yard touchdown reception where he beat cornerback Riley Moss and was wide open downfield. The sequence demonstrates Mumpfield's ability to create separation and contribute in key moments for the Rams' passing attack.PositiveBreakoutSep 28, 2026
It was obviously Mumpfield's best game as a pro with 63 snaps (73%); he ran some really nice routes and Stafford was looking his way late in the game, a good sign for his development.PositiveBreakoutSep 28, 2026
Had breakout game with four receptions for 93 yards and a 48-yard touchdown catch; stepped up significantly due to Puka Nacua's absence; three of his four catches and 78 of his 93 yards came in the final quarter as Rams offense became desperate in comeback attempt.PositiveBreakoutSep 28, 2026

Rams receiver caught 48-yard touchdown pass from Matthew Stafford with 3:38 remaining that cut Denver's lead to 23-22, giving Los Angeles one final opportunity to complete comeback. However, the score was not enough to overcome earlier turnovers and the Rams' final possession ended in another Stafford interception to Talanoa Hufanga.PositiveRoleSep 28, 2026
Mumpfield stepped up in Puka Nacua's absence, catching a 48-yard touchdown pass from Stafford that gave the Rams a 26-23 lead with just under 4 minutes remaining. The source notes he 'did step up' on the final drive, demonstrating he can be a viable option when Nacua is unavailable.NegativeRoleSep 27, 2026
Active in all 19 regular-season games of his young career with 434 snaps at wide receiver, but has been targeted only 26 times with 11 catches for a 42.3% catch rate; the source deems it almost impossible to make a case for Mumpfield to suddenly become a featured part of the Rams offense in Nacua's absence.NegativeUsageSep 22, 2026
Mumpfield played 43 snaps (69%) but was very quiet with only two targets. He made a run after catch effort on his single completion.PositiveRoleSep 20, 2026
The source explicitly advises against relying on Mumpfield as a fantasy option to replace Nacua's production, indicating he is not a viable target in the Rams' receiver rotation.PositiveUsageSep 19, 2026
Would receive increased targets if both Puka Nacua and Jordan Whittington are ruled out; the Rams would lean heavily on Mumpfield, Davante Adams, and their tight ends in the receiving game.NegativeDepth ChartSep 18, 2026
Rams WR listed as a potential replacement option if Puka Nacua is unavailable for Week 2, alongside Jordan Whittington, Tutu Atwell, Xavier Smith, and C.J. Daniels.PositiveRoleSep 17, 2026
The Rams passed on upgrading at third receiver over Konata Mumpfield through free agency and the draft; he is unable to carve into the target share of Puka Nacua or Davante Adams, limiting his fantasy ceiling in an offense that relies on heavy personnel packages.NegativeRoleSep 12, 2026
Mumpfield played 16 snaps (26% snap share) at wide receiver and had a quiet game; he got his bell rung in the second half but was able to return. The source questions why Mumpfield is active over Atwell and/or Daniels, and suggests Brennan Presley could be in that mix too.PositiveUsageSep 11, 2026
Mumpfield, a Rams 2025 pick, had zero catches on one target in Week 1; the source uses him as an example of the Rams' failure to develop their rookie class.PositiveUsageSep 6, 2026
Mumpfield scored one of Stafford's five TDs in the London international game against Jacksonville, getting an opportunity as part of Stafford's distribution to 10 different receivers with Puka Nacua unavailable.PositiveRoleAug 27, 2026

Konata Mumpfield is being treated as a lock for the Rams 53-man roster, indicating strong confidence in his roster status heading into the final preseason game and roster cuts.NegativeDepth ChartAug 23, 2026
Listed as one of four wide receivers on the Rams' 53-man roster projection alongside Puka Nacua, Davante Adams, and Jordan Whittington; rested in both preseason games as an established roster player.NegativeRoleAug 23, 2026
Mumpfield is expected to compete for the WR3 role in the Rams offense in a revolving-door arrangement with Xavier Smith and Jordan Whittington; CJ Daniels' strong preseason performance has also entered him into the competition for snap share.NegativeRoleAug 22, 2026
Tight end Konata Mumpfield is in a similar situation to what Ferguson faced last year: frequently open but not where starting quarterback Matthew Stafford expects him to be, and not strong at the catch point. The source notes that "Davante's opinion of him says a lot" and suggests letting him develop, indicating uncertainty about his 2026 fantasy viability despite his route running ability.PositiveRoleAug 21, 2026
Sean McVay praised Mumpfield for competing without the football—blocking, selling routes, and separating—calling him a sharp, savvy route-runner who is wired to separate and catching the ball really well. McVay noted Mumpfield has stepped up significantly, with coaching staff (Rob Calabrese, Eric Yarber, Robert Woods) helping him take his game to another level. In Puka Nacua's absence, Mumpfield has shown his value alongside Jordan Whittington, demonstrating he can contribute both with and without the ball in a crowded receiver room.NegativeRoleAug 19, 2026
Seventh-round pick in 2025 competing for the Rams' WR3 spot alongside Konata Mumpfield, Jordan Whittington, and Xavier Smith, with sixth-round rookie CJ Daniels also in the mix. Finished his rookie season with 10 receptions for 92 yards and a touchdown across 17 games. None of the group has separated itself statistically in the competition for the third receiver role.PositiveRoleAug 16, 2026
Konata Mumpfield is one of the biggest winners in the Rams preseason opener despite not suiting up, having graduated from preseason reps alongside Jordan Whittington. He is firmly in the Rams' top-4 wide receiver depth chart at the 3-4 slot behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams. Mumpfield received an endorsement from veteran Adams in the offseason, something Adams rarely does for young receivers. The source suggests Mumpfield may have a higher ceiling and more room to grow than Whittington, who had 18 catches for 171 yards in 2025 compared to Mumpfield's 10 catches for 92 yards, noting that Mumpfield's trajectory is more promising.NegativeDepth ChartAug 12, 2026
Listed as the second-string punt returner on the Rams depth chart behind Xavier Smith.NegativeDepth ChartAug 12, 2026
WR3 candidate competing for receiver opportunities behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams on the Rams' current depth chart; the source notes the third receiver role is extremely important and finding consistency from that position could force defenses to respect the entire width of the field.NegativeValueAug 6, 2026
The Rams selected Konata Mumpfield in a roundabout trade with Atlanta, sending Van Jefferson and a 2025 7th round pick for a 2025 6th round pick. The source rates this as a push and notes it is still too early to tell what the trade yielded for both teams.NegativeDepth ChartAug 4, 2026
Mumpfield is expected to make the 53-man roster as one of five wide receivers; the Rams are committed to 13 personnel which limits the number of receivers kept.NegativeDepth ChartAug 2, 2026
Konata Mumpfield is next in line after the near-locks (Nacua, Adams, Daniels, Whittington) for a Rams receiver spot. Mario Williams could make a push against Mumpfield and Xavier Smith if he continues to stack strong practice days.PositiveBreakoutJul 29, 2026
The source predicts Mumpfield records a five-catch game in his second season. Davante Adams believes Mumpfield is the truth, which is bold praise for a 2025 7th rounder. Mumpfield had only 10 catches last season but saw offensive snaps in all 17 games with snap share percentage hovering around 40-50% in the second half of the season, providing game experience that will be useful going into year two.NegativeDepth ChartJul 29, 2026
Competing for WR#3 role against Jordan Whittington and Xavier Smith. While Rams coaches favor him, source views him as most vulnerable to replacement among the three candidates, suggesting limited job security despite coaching preference.PositiveRoleJul 29, 2026
Round 7 pick Mumpfield impressed Rams coaches from the beginning of preseason through the season; he played in all 20 games with 436 offensive reps and 73 special teams snaps; coaches praise his crisp route-running, showing understanding of angles, alternating tempo, and feel for space; he's crafty rather than speed-based, though athletic testing shows excellent burst, short-area agility, change of direction, and lower-body explosiveness; limited targets (23 regular season, 6 playoffs) with under 50% catch percentage suggest opportunity for increased role.NegativeDepth ChartJul 23, 2026
Mumpfield appeared on 95.1% of fan-submitted 53-man rosters, indicating strong consensus that she will make the roster as a wide receiver.NegativeRoleJul 22, 2026
Competing for Rams WR3 role against C.J. Daniels, Jordan Whittington, and Xavier Smith. The WR3 position may not receive significant snap volume if McVay continues running 12 and 13 personnel concepts as he did in 2025, with the third receiver getting fewer snaps than the team's third tight end. The winner of the WR3 competition will be the player who best complements the two starters in backup capacity.
