The Los Angeles Rams still have numerous members on their team from the 2021 Super Bowl run who are determined to get back there. The Rams are coming off a 10-7 season that saw them reach the divisional round of the playoffs.
Puka Nacua played a vital role in their success and figures to be a building block for their offense for years to come. The Rams released a fairly significant announcement regarding their 23-year-old wide receiver.
The Los Angeles Rams Release Statement Regarding Puka Nacua
According to ESPN:
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua is considered week-to-week after sustaining a knee injury Sunday, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Monday.
One source, however, described Nacua’s injury as “not serious.”
Nacua left the Rams’ joint practice with the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday after getting up slowly during a team drill.
After the practice, coach Sean McVay said he wasn’t sure what happened to Nacua, who in 2023 set rookie records for receptions (105) and receiving yards (1,486).
The Rams are off Monday and will return to practice Tuesday.
It’s the latest injury in training camp for the Rams, who are dealing with injuries to three-fifths of their starting offensive line. Right tackle Rob Havenstein (ankle) and left guard Jonah Jackson (shoulder) are both considered week-to-week, and left tackle Alaric Jackson is dealing with an ankle injury.
Known for his record-setting rookie season with Los Angeles, Nacua played collegiately at Washington and BYU.
His 2023 campaign earned him Pro Bowl and second-team All-Pro honors after he broke the NFL rookie reception record (105) and receiving yards (1,486).
Second to Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud as Associated Press NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2023.
On Sunday, the Rams will open preseason play their first pre-season game at home against the Cowboys.
