Playing the Rams WR today against the Seahawks

Puka Nacua first injured his knee in training camp during a joint practice with the Los Angeles Chargers, sidelining him for several weeks before the season. Then in Week 1, he aggravated the injury and proceeded to miss the next five games before returning in Week 8.

Although he didn’t play the entire game, Nacua looked like his usual self against the Vikings, catching seven passes for 106 yards in the Rams’ win. Unfortunately, his knee problems resurfaced on Thursday when he hit it in practice and was forced to leave early.

He missed Friday’s practice and is officially questionable to play against the Seahawks today, but here are the latest updates on the Rams receiver.

Puka Nacua injury update

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Nacua will at least give it a shot today against the Seahawks. He is expected to “be able to try to play” in Seattle, which bodes well for the Rams and their receiving corps as a whole.

With Nacua and Cooper Kupp both healthy, the Rams offense looks completely different.

The Rams expect WR Puka Nacua to be able to try to play Sunday against Seattle, though sources say he is listed as questionable with a knee injury.

Rams WR depth chart

Nacua, Kupp and Robinson are again expected to be the top wide receivers with Tyler Johnson and Tutu Atwell as the primary backups. Jordan Whittington is questionable so he is not certain to play, which would be his second consecutive missed game.
