Puka Nacua Is Active for Week 4 as Rams Enter Game With No Planned Snap Limit

Full practice and coach confirmation shift the team’s focus to monitoring his hip in real time during the game.

Overview

  • Puka Nacua is active for Sunday’s game after practicing fully on Friday and carrying no injury designation on the Rams’ Week 4 report.
  • Reporters offered conflicting previews of his workload with Tom Pelissero saying he may face a stricter snap count and Adam Schefter reporting the Rams do not intend to limit his snaps.
  • Head coach Sean McVay confirmed Nacua will play and said the team will navigate his snap count based on how he responds on the field.
  • A circulating theory that Nacua was serving a secret NFL suspension tied to off-field allegations has been publicly disputed by insiders and remains unsupported by the league.
  • Davante Adams absorbed targets during Nacua’s two-game absence with big receiving games, and the Rams say they will manage Nacua week to week with surgery as a contingency if progress stalls.
