Rams WR Puka Nacua Likely Headed To Injured Reserve

Nacua underwent an MRI on Monday to determine the extent of his knee injury, though the Rams reportedly do not believe he suffered a torn ACL.

Nacua suffered an injury on the team’s final offensive snap in their Week 9 win over the Commanders. 

Nacua, 25, was a fifth-round pick of the Rams in the 2023 NFL Draft out of BYU. He just finished the third year of a four-year, $4.1 million contract through 2026 and made a base salary of $1.03 million in 2025.

In 2026, Nacua has appeared in seven game for the Rams and caught 70 passes for 715 yards and four touchdowns.

We’ll have more on Nacua as the news becomes available.
