Puka Nacua injury: What happened to the Rams' star WR?
At the end of a win, the Rams got a big Puka Nacua injury scare. Here's the latest on his status.
In the final moments of the Los Angeles Rams' game against the Washington Commanders, the team had most of its top players back on the field. However, during a third-and-long play at the 50-yard line with nearly two minutes left, defensive coordinator decisions led to an unfortunate outcome for running back Puka Nacua. As Nacua was tackled near the end zone, he suffered a knee injury after being undercut by the defender.
While the Rams were not convinced that Nacua tore his ACL, they acknowledged that an MRI scheduled for Monday would provide a clearer picture of the injury's severity and its potential impact on Nacua's availability for future games. With Myles Garrett now back on defense but Davante Adams still sidelined for weeks, the Rams faced the daunting prospect of an extended absence for their star wide receiver, Puka Nacua.
