The Los Angeles Rams knocked the Minnesota Vikings out of the NFL Playoffs last season and are hoping to build on their performance with another strong season in 2025-26.

The Rams' passing attack, led by veteran QB Matthew Stafford, was given a new weapon during the offseason as former New York Jets and Las Vegas Raiders star Davante Adams arrived to the City of Angels on a two-year $46 million contract.

The Rams are a little over a week away from a Gates Open practice for fans on July 24, prompting players including Puka Nacua to share their preliminary thoughts on the team through the media recently.

"We signed Tutu (Atwell) back," Nacua said according to NFL.com on Tuesday. "We've got some speed, we got a bunch of young guys who are excited to play.

"(No.) 17 (Adams) is gonna lead the way for us, and it's gonna be fantastic to be out there on the football field with him," Nacua added.

Nacua also said that the receivers group has undergone many changes but is excited about where things are headed.

"It's definitely gonna be different," Nacua said on Tuesday's episode of 'The Insiders.'

"Davante, as soon as he stepped into the facility has been fantastic. The ability to learn from another all-time great has been -- I feel like I'm stealing -- I'm like a kid in the candy store.

"I've had Matthew Stafford, Sean McVay, Cooper Kupp and now Davante Adams.

"My life is pretty good, I can't complain too much. It's gonna be fun," he added.
