Rams' Puka Nacua: Ejected for throwing punch
Nacua (knee) was ejected in the first half of Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
After a pass intended for Nacua was intercepted, another Seattle defender came over to block Nacua as the Seahawks tried to set up a return. Nacua took exception as he had already touched the intercepting player down by contact, and the star receiver appeared to throw a punch at the player blocking him, resulting in the ejection. Prior to being ejected, Nacua had just one catch on four targets for 11 yards. A silver lining for Nacua is that he was able to play after aggravating a knee injury in practice Thursday, so he should be available in Week 10 against the Dolphins on MNF.

Rams' Puka Nacua: Suiting up in Week 9
Nacua (knee) is listed as active Sunday at Seattle, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
In the wake of banging his right knee into the ground at Thursday's practice, Nacua didn't practice Friday and thus entered the weekend listed as questionable for Week 9 action. The Rams never seemed too worried about his availability, though, and his status now has been confirmed. Nacua will be facing a Seahawks defense that has conceded the ninth-most receiving touchdowns (eight) to opposing wideouts in eight contests this season.

Rams' Puka Nacua: Should play Week 9
Nacua (knee) is listed as questionable but is expected to be available for Sunday's game at Seattle, Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports.
Nacua banged his right knee into the ground during Thursday's practice, though head coach Sean McVay noted afterward that the injury wasn't a serious one. Nevertheless, Nacua didn't practice Friday and was listed as questionable before traveling with the team Saturday. The Rams don't kick off until 4:25 p.m. ET on Sunday, so his status won't be confirmed until most of the Week 9 slate already is in action. Assuming he suits up, Nacua will team up with Cooper Kupp as the primary pass catchers for quarterback Matthew Stafford, while Tutu Atwell, Demarcus Robinson, Jordan Whittington (shoulder), Tyler Johnson and Xavier Smith are the other wide receivers on the active roster.

Rams' Puka Nacua: Listed as questionable
Nacua (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Seattle, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Nacua banged his knee on the ground during Thursday's practice and was listed as a limited participant, with coach Sean McVay then saying Friday that the wideout didn't have any structural damage but wouldn't practice Friday. McVay also said he "wouldn't bet against" Nacua, noting that the 23-year-old would "do everything in is power to be ready," per Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com. Fantasy managers should have another alternative ready in case Nacua ends up on the inactive list ahead of a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday. Candidates to take his snaps for the Rams include Tutu Atwell, Jordan Whittington (questionable, shoulder) and Tyler Johnson, although many fantasy managers will rightfully be more interested in the increased target projection for Cooper Kupp if Nacua isn't playing.

Rams' Puka Nacua: Won't practice Friday but may play
Rams coach Sean McVay said Friday that he "wouldn't bet against" Nacua (knee) playing Sunday at Seattle, even though the wideout will miss Friday's practice and be listed as questionable for the game, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
McVay also said there's nothing structurally wrong with Nacua's knee, noting that the wideout merely banged it on the ground during Thursday's practice, per Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic. That's not as reassuring as it might otherwise be, given that Nacua missed five games with a PCL injury after hitting his knee on the ground during a Week 1 contest, but it does seem the Rams are maintaining hope for him to play in an important divisional game this Sunday. "My expectation is [Nacua]'s going to do everything in his power to be ready to roll," McVay said. "That's the mindset that we have."

Rams' Puka Nacua: Injury not viewed as serious
The knee injury that Nacua suffered at Thursday's practice isn't considered a major one but his status for Sunday's game against the Seahawks remains undetermined, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Nacua was listed as a limited participant in Thursday's practice after he appeared to suffer an aggravation of the knee injury that sidelined him for five games earlier this season. Fortunately for Nacua and the Rams, he looks to have avoided a major setback, and the team expects him to be fine. However, it's unclear whether Nacua will be able to shake off the injury in time to play Sunday, but his activity (or lack thereof) at Friday's practice should provide at least some clue.

Rams' Puka Nacua: Injures knee Thursday
Nacua suffered a knee injury during Thursday's practice and will be listed as limited on the Rams' second Week 9 injury report, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Nacua previously tended to a right knee injury that kept him out for the entire preseason, and he aggravated the issue Week 1, missing the next five games as a result. He was able to return to action last Thursday against the Vikings, and while his workload was capped at 41 of 72 offensive snaps (57 percent), he paced the Rams with seven catches (on nine targets) for 106 yards and added two carries for five yards. Per Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times, the current concern is related to the old one, so Nacua's status bears watching as the team prepares for Sunday's road matchup with the Seahawks.
