• Rams' Puka Nacua: Eight catches in Week 7 win

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Nacua brought in eight of 10 targets for 68 yards and a touchdown and rushed twice for 10 yards in the Rams' 35-21 win over the Raiders on Sunday. Nacua led the Rams in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the afternoon, playing through his calf injury without issue while also helping make up for the absence of Davante Adams (IR, hamstring). Nacua rounded out his busy day with his second touchdown catch of the season, which came from 11 yards out with just over four minutes remaining in the second quarter. Nacua figures to be even more involved than usual while Adams is sidelined, and he'll take a 45-485-2 line into a Week 8 home matchup against the Chargers next Sunday.

• Rams' Puka Nacua: Is active Sunday

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Nacua (calf) is active for Sunday's game at Las Vegas, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports. Nacua's addition to the practice report Thursday due to a calf issue was more cause for concern for a roster riddled with injuries. While Nacua didn't practice Friday and was listed as questionable for Week 7, Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Sunday morning that Rams are optimistic about Nacua's ability to play, and that now has been confirmed. Nacua could have his workload capped somewhat, but he'll be needed to power an air attack without Davante Adams (hamstring) for at least the next four contests. In his four appearances this season, Nacua has put together a 37-417-1 line on 52 targets.

• Rams' Puka Nacua: Optimism regarding Week 7 status

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  The Rams are optimistic that Nacua (calf), who is listed as questionable for Week 7, will play in Sunday's game at Las Vegas, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The injury-plagued Rams endured another scare this week when Nacua made an early exit from Thursday's practice due to a calf injury. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Friday that Nacua's new health concern is believed to be "more minor than anything else" and "not significant," but the wide receiver sat out the team's last Week 7 session and was listed as questionable ahead of the weekend. Nacua likely is poised for a pregame workout before L.A. makes a call on his status about 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

• Rams' Puka Nacua: Seemingly avoids serious setback

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  The calf injury Nacua sustained Thursday is believed to be "more minor than anything else" and "not significant," Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Nacua left Thursday's practice with the calf issue, and tests performed afterward appear to have indicated he did not sustain a serious injury. The report notes that Nacua's availability for Week 7 remains uncertain, but the Rams will presumably provide an official update on both his short- and long-term status at some point Friday.
