Overview
- Rams coach Sean McVay told reporters Wednesday that Puka Nacua practiced in a limited fashion and is expected to play Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles.
- Aaron Donald did not participate in Wednesday’s practice because of a sore back, and Myles Garrett remains on injured reserve after arthroscopic knee surgery.
- Nacua has been managed week to week for a psoas‑related hip and adductor/groin problem that first surfaced in training camp and could require surgery if he suffers a setback.
- Without Nacua over the past two games the Rams leaned heavily on Davante Adams, and Nacua’s likely return should reduce offensive predictability and boost Matthew Stafford’s targets and fantasy value.
- The key things to watch this week are Nacua’s work in follow‑up practices and any snap‑count limits, Aaron Donald’s game‑day clearance, and whether the Rams stick to conservative rehab or move toward surgery if the injury does not steadily improve.
