  • Rams' Puka Nacua: Officially limited Wednesday

    Nacua (hip) officially was limited at Wednesday's practice, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Nacua thus upheld coach Sean McVay's expectations of the stud wide receiver as the Rams kicked off Week 4 prep. After missing the last two games due to a hip injury that McVay alternatively has called soreness in his groin, Nacua also is expected to play in Sunday's game at Philadelphia, as McVay told Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site on Wednesday. How Nacua fares at practice Thursday and Friday likely will determine if he heads into the weekend with a designation.

  • Rams' Puka Nacua: To be limited Wednesday

    Coach Sean McVay said Nacua (hip) will practice in a limited capacity Wednesday, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

    This will mark Nacua's first official practice since Sept. 18, as he missed the last two games due to a listed hip injury that McVay has termed "soreness in his groin" that's not related to the psoas discomfort that he tended to in training camp. On Monday, McVay relayed to Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register that he was "hopeful" Nacua will return this coming Sunday at Philadelphia, but McVay was a bit more firm Wednesday, saying he expects the wide receiver to play in Week 4, per Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site. Nacua likely will need to get back to full participation by Friday to avoid a designation ahead of the weekend.

  • Rams' Puka Nacua: Hopeful for Week 4 return

    Head coach Sean McVay said Monday that the Rams are "hopeful" Nacua (hip) will return to action for Sunday's game at Philadelphia, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

    Nacua has missed the past two gams due to a hip injury (on official practice reports) or what McVay alternatively has called "soreness in his groin" that's unrelated to the psoas discomfort the wide receiver dealt with in training camp. McVay relayed to Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com on Friday that if Nacua doesn't play Sunday at Denver, which came to pass, he likely will be available Week 4. McVay was more subdued Monday, also telling Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times that Nacua's upcoming status is "to be determined." As a result, the will he or won't he suit up with Nacua likely will continue until close to next weekend's kickoff or even beyond that point.

  • Rams' Puka Nacua: Inactive in Week 3, as expected

    Nacua (hip) is inactive for Sunday's game in Denver, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    Nacua has been listed as a non-participant on each of the Rams' last five injury reports as he deals with a hip injury that head coach Sean McVay has termed "soreness in his groin" that's unrelated to the psoas discomfort that he dealt with in training camp. McVay told Barshop on Friday that if Nacua doesn't suit up Sunday, he likely will be back in action Week 4 at Philadelphia. While Nacua misses a second consecutive contest, fellow WR Davante Adams again will have unfettered access to targets from QB Matthew Stafford, with Jordan Whittington, Konata Mumpfield and Xavier Smith the others available at the position.

  • Rams' Puka Nacua: Health concern considered 'short term'

    Nacua (hip), who is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game at Denver, has been hampered by a groin injury that has impacted his explosiveness, and while the Rams haven't taken surgery "entirely off the table," the issue is considered "short term," with a return possible sooner rather than later, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    The Rams have listed Nacua with a hip injury on official practice reports since Friday, Sept. 18, a span in which he hasn't practiced while head coach Sean McVay termed the issue "soreness in his groin" unrelated to the psoas discomfort that he tended to in training camp. McVay also told Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com on Friday that if Nacua doesn't play this weekend, he likely will be back Week 4 at Philadelphia on Sunday, Oct. 4, barring a setback. Assuming Nacua is inactive this Sunday, Davante Adams will handle No. 1 WR duties for a second contest in a row.

  • Rams' Puka Nacua: Doubtful to play in Week 3

    Coach Sean McVay said Friday that Nacua (hip) will be listed as doubtful for Sunday's game at Denver, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

    Nacua thus is poised to miss a second consecutive contest due to a hip injury, but McVay relayed to Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com that if the wide receiver isn't able to play this weekend, he likely will be back for a Week 4 road matchup with the Eagles on Sunday, Oct. 4, barring a setback. Assuming Nacua is inactive this Sunday, the Rams will roll with WR Davante Adams as their top pass catcher, with a smattering of wide receivers and tight ends also available to QB Matthew Stafford.
