Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua suffered a knee injury during the team's 20-13 victory over the Washington Commanders on Sunday. Nacua caught 14 passes for 150 yards and a touchdown, along with 20 additional yards on two rushing attempts, as the Rams improved their season record to above .500. However, the injury has caused concern within the Los Angeles organization.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter and Mike Garafolo, Nacua sustained the injury on the Rams' final offensive play of the game and will undergo an MRI on Monday to assess the full extent of the damage. The team does not currently believe the injury is a torn ACL, but expect more information to emerge from the imaging on Monday. Nacua was able to get up after being tackled but walked back to the sideline cautiously.
The Rams will face the Arizona Cardinals in Week 10, followed by a bye week before hosting the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving Eve, November 25.
