Puka Nacua Doubtful For Broncos, Groin Surgery Still An Option But Quick Return Expected

Puka Nacua, the Los Angeles Rams' star wide receiver, is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos due to a groin injury. This marks his second absence this season due to the same issue, which has also kept him out of every practice this week. Despite the team's belief that the recovery will be short-term, surgery is not entirely off the table if Nacua does not show improvement.

With his explosiveness affected, Nacua maintains he can still play but at a reduced level. The Rams are taking a cautious approach, hoping to avoid surgery and keep Nacua on track for a possible return in the upcoming Week 4 game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
