Injury Setback
The Los Angeles Rams have placed wide receiver Puka Nacua on injured reserve after all. Nacua hurt the MCL in his right knee and a toe during Sunday's victory over the Washington Commanders. Coach Sean McVay stated that Nacua is expected to miss an extended period of time.
On Wednesday, McVay mentioned that the team planned to keep Nacua on the active roster due to roster mechanics. However, the Rams changed their minds on Thursday. The move allows them to sign receiver Brennan Presley to the active roster and add receiver Tyler Scott to the practice squad.
Missed Matches
By going on injured reserve, Nacua will miss at least four upcoming games. Those matches include games at the Arizona Cardinals, at home against the Green Bay Packers and the Kansas City Chiefs, and at the San Francisco 49ers.
This is not his first absence this season. Nacua already missed Week 2 and Week 3 because of a hip injury.
Strong Numbers
Despite missing time, Nacua has put up huge numbers in his seven games this season. He has recorded 70 catches for 715 yards and four touchdowns.
His 70 receptions are the most through a player's first seven games of a season in NFL history. The Rams hold a 5-4 record and are also playing without wide receiver Davante Adams, who has been on injured reserve since a Week 6 loss to the Cardinals.
