Puka Nacua Questionable To Face The 49ers

Puka Nacua Questionable To Face The 49ers

one year ago

Los Angeles Rams rookie wide receiver Puka Nacua (oblique) will be limited in practice on Friday and listed as questionable to play in the Week 2 contest on Sunday against the division-rival San Francisco 49ers and their tough defense. However, the Rams believe he'll get the green light to play this weekend. Nacua was the most popular waiver-wire pickup after Week 1 of the season because of the fact that Cooper Kupp (hamstring) is on Injured Reserve and that the 22-year-old Nacua caught 10 of a whopping 15 targets for 119 yards in his NFL debut in the Week 1 win over the Seattle Seahawks. Fantasy managers should expect some regression immediately from those numbers this weekend if Nacua plays, but he's on the WR4/flex radar now if he's able to suit up. If he's inactive, Van Jefferson and Tutu Atwell will have expanded roles in the passing game on Sunday.
