Puka Nacua Placed on IR with Knee Sprains, Turf Toe

Will Nacua return strong after rehab?Rams coach Sean McVay confirms Puka Nacua’s move to IR after knee and toe injuries.

Coach Sean McVay announced Monday that Rams receiver Puka Nacua is moving to injured reserve.

He suffered sprains to both his medial and posterior collateral knee ligaments, plus a turf toe.

The injury sidelines him for at least four games; the earliest comeback could be Dec. 20 against Dallas.

Veteran receiver Davante Adams already occupies a spot on the IR list.

Nacua tallied 14 catches for 150 yards in the 20‑13 victory over Washington, boosting his season totals to 70 receptions, 715 yards and four scores. For my money, his loss hurts the Rams’ passing attack.

The setback occurred on the final offensive snap, a five‑yard run on third‑and‑11.
