What happened: Puka Nacua suffered a knee injury during the Rams' 20-13 victory over Washington on Sunday. The wide receiver is listed as questionable and will undergo an MRI on Monday to evaluate the extent of the injury.
Why it matters: Los Angeles sits at 5-4 and holds a three-game winning streak as it contends for playoff positioning in the NFC. An extended absence for Nacua would leave a significant void in an offense built heavily around his target share.
By the numbers: Nacua has caught 56 passes for 565 yards and 3 touchdowns in 2026 through 6 games. The Rams are 5-4 in 2026 through 9 games and hold the No. 9 seed in the NFC.
What to watch: The results of Monday's MRI will clarify Nacua's diagnosis and determine his availability moving forward.
