Overview
- The Rams said Puka Nacua left Thursday practice with a calf problem, did not practice Friday, and coach Sean McVay listed him as questionable for Sunday with a game‑time decision pending.
- Wide receiver Davante Adams was placed on injured reserve earlier this week with a ruptured hamstring and is expected to miss about six to ten weeks.
- Testing reported by NFL insiders suggested Nacua’s calf looks more minor than first feared, but those results do not guarantee he will play on Sunday.
- McVay said the team has not discussed signing an outside receiver and plans to rely on internal options such as Konata Mumpfield, Jordan Whittington and the tight ends if Nacua is unavailable.
- The injuries leave a 2‑4 Rams roster thin at key positions, increasing pressure on Matthew Stafford, forcing play‑calling adjustments, and raising short‑term playoff and fantasy implications.
