Rams receiver Puka Nacua had to exit Thursday’s practice with a calf injury, and now there’s a bit of an update on him.
According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Nacua’s calf injury is not believed to be serious. But it’s still unclear whether or not he’ll be able to play in Sunday’s game against the Raiders, with Rapoport noting Nacua’s status is “up in the air.”
Los Angeles has been dealing with a wave of injuries this week, particularly on defense. But fellow receiver Davante Adams also went on injured reserve with a ruptured hamstring, thinning the team’s depth at its skill positions.
Head coach Sean McVay is slated to speak with reporters on Friday before practice.
In four games this season, Nacua has caught 37 passes for 417 yards with one touchdown. He’s also rushed three times for 11 yards with 1 TD.
