Rams Rule Puka Nacua Out for London Game Against Jaguars

Sean McVay says any comeback hinges on practice readiness following the Week 8 bye.

Overview

  • McVay announced the decision Friday, with Nacua sidelined after missing all Week 7 practices due to an ankle injury.
  • Puka Nacua hurt the ankle in the Week 6 win at Baltimore and was limited to 27 snaps in that game.
  • The team has not given a timetable for his return, with Week 9 at New Orleans the earliest possibility based on practice progress.
  • With Nacua unavailable, Davante Adams tops the receiver pecking order as Jordan Whittington and Tutu Atwell are set for larger target shares.
  • Jacksonville ruled out tight end Quintin Morris and linebacker Devin Lloyd, while the Rams also ruled out right tackle Rob Havenstein with an ankle injury.
