Whittington plays with the sturdy, competitive feel coaches trust in a crowded offense. He does not need to become a high-volume star; winning the contested and blocking details can make him the most dependable answer when L.A. does go three wide.
Strengths: Physicality, experience, six 2025 starts, willingness to work the sideline and a strong early-camp sequence.
Weaknesses: The offense's frequent tight-end packages limit receiver-three snaps, so his production may remain role dependent.
