“Puka Nacua – he was in the medical tent for about 10 minutes,” said Stark. “Matthew Stafford went in to check on him. He came out with a new tape job on his right knee. He is questionable with that knee.”
Heading into halftime, Nacua has caught four passes for 35 yards for LA.
Nacua is coming off a Pro Bowl-level rookie season playing wide receiver in the NFL. That would make it quite the loss for the Rams’ offense and team if he can’t return for the remainder of the night.
