  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Nacua (groin) isn't practicing Monday, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports. Nacua now is ticking toward two weeks off the practice field due to soreness in his psoas, but he was able to work with a member of the Rams' training staff on a side field Monday, indicating he's making some progress. In the end, the team likely is being as cautious as possible with Nacua with a Week 1 matchup with the 49ers in mind.

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  Nacua was a non-participant at Thursday's joint practice with the Saints, Stu Jackson and Zach Edwards of the Rams' official site report. Nacua has been a spectator at practice since departing last Tuesday's joint session with the Cowboys early, eventually getting diagnosed with soreness in his psoas. On Monday, coach Sean McVay said Nacua may not return to practice until next week, which now will be his next chance to mix back into drills. The Rams likely will continue to take it easy with Nacua to ensure he's healthy for a Week 1 matchup with the 49ers in Melbourne, Australia on Thursday, Sept. 10.

• Rams' Puka Nacua: Could remain sidelined all week

  Coach Sean McVay said Nacua (groin) may not practice this week, Greg Beacham of the Associated Press reports. Nacua has been dealing with a minor groin injury since last Tuesday, which as of Thursday was clarified to be soreness in his psoas. He didn't make the trip to Kansas City for this past Saturday's preseason game, and if he doesn't mix into drills at all this week, either, he seemingly would be trending toward another absence this Saturday versus the Saints. In the end, though, having Nacua 100 percent for Week 1 against the 49ers in Melbourne, Australia on Thursday, Sept. 10 is the key, so the Rams taking a cautious approach with him comes as no surprise

• Rams' Puka Nacua: Expected to be "ready to go" next week

  15D ago • By RotoWire

  Head coach Sean McVay expects Nacua (groin), who is dealing with soreness in his psoas, to be "ready to go" in practice ahead of the team's second preseason game against the Saints on Aug. 22, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports. The psoas is a muscle that runs from the lower back through the pelvis and to the top of the femur. Nacua left Tuesday's joint practice with the Cowboys due to soreness in that area. He's on track to sit out Saturday's preseason opener against the Chiefs before likely returning to practice ahead of the team's second preseason game versus the Saints. The standout wideout can thus be considered day-to-day for now.
