The Los Angeles Rams may be down another star wide receiver for its Week 7 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday, Oct. 25.
Puka Nacua is questionable on the injury report and did not practice while dealing with a calf injury, head coach Sean McVay told reporters Friday, Oct. 23.
Nacua missed Weeks 2 and 3 with a groin injury. He has 37 catches for 417 receiving yards and a touchdown this season for the Rams, who are off to a 2-4 start despite entering the season as Super Bowl favorites.
The Rams will also be without wideout Davante Adams for the foreseeable future, as a ruptured hamstring will keep him out 6-10 weeks.
What did Sean McVay say about Puka Nacua injury?
McVay told reporters Nacua "felt it where he wasn't able to have some of the power and full explosion," according to ESPN. Nacua left Thursday's practice but there was no particular play in which he suffered the injury, McVay said.
