Puka Nacua injury update as Rams WR to undergo MRI after hurting knee in Week 9
Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua suffered a knee injury late in the Rams' Week 9 win over the Commanders. He will undergo testing. Here's what we know.
Injuries continue to plague the Los Angeles Rams as wide receiver Puka Nacua will undergo an MRI on Monday to assess the damage from a knee injury sustained during their Week 9 game. The incident occurred on the team's final offensive play on Sunday, November 8, when Nacua, an All-Pro, was tackled by Jeremy Reaves and Sonny Styles while attempting a jet sweep.
Although he was down for a moment, Nacua managed to stand and walk off the field without any visible issues. The team does not suspect a torn ACL but will confirm the extent of the injury via the MRI results. Despite the setback, Nacua managed to make a significant contribution to the game, catching 14 passes for 150 yards and scoring the winning touchdown, making him the only Rams player to record over 20 receiving yards in the match.
