Watch: Rams rookie sensation Puka Nacua sets another record

Los Angeles Rams rookie wide receiver Puka Nacua keeps etching his name into the record books.

Against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday, the 22-year-old caught a 26-yard pass on the first play of scrimmage. The one-handed reception was his 31st of the season, the most through a player's first four games in NFL history.

Nacua, the 177th overall pick of the 2023 NFL Draft, is a massive steal for the Rams. Through three games, the former BYU standout is fourth in the NFL in receiving yards (338).  

Also, his emergence has been vital for the Los Angeles offense since No. 1 wideout Cooper Kupp has yet to play this season due to a nagging hamstring injury. When the 2021 NFL Offensive Player of the Year returns, the Rams will have one of the best WR tandems in the league if the rookie continues to produce.

Furthermore, an explosive offensive could help the Rams stay in the playoff hunt after a 1-2 start.
