^ I'm picking up Chris Givens.
"STL - Chris Givens could have expanded role
Source: KFFL.com
St. Louis Rams head coach Jeff Fisher hinted that WR Chris Givens could have an expanded role the last four games of the season now that he's improving his short game. 'Yeah, we've been talking about that. He's got to bring his game from the long touchdown passes back closer to the line of scrimmage and be more proficient in the short and intermediate passing game, and he's doing that. He's getting to where he needs to get to. He's making the quick catches. It's also very helpful when you have an accurate quarterback to put the ball where he needs to put it. He's a guy that, hopefully, as we push through the rest of the season, will have more plays. What we're looking for is the run after catch opportunities for him, but he's improving,' Fisher said.

Givens began his rookie season as a deep threat and a big play WR. He's continued to develop his game and has become a better route runner as the season goes on. We like him as a WR3/flex play with this expanding role."
I'm hoping he has a bigger role when Amendola gets back.
