What happened: The Los Angeles Rams do not plan to limit Puka Nacua's workload in today's scheduled game against the Philadelphia Eagles. While the team will monitor his progress, he is expected to handle his normal responsibilities.

Why it matters: Nacua carries a questionable designation into the matchup, but avoiding a snap count provides a critical boost for the Los Angeles offense. The team previously ruled him out for a game earlier this season, making his return to a full-time role significant for their passing attack.

By the numbers: The Rams enter the game at 4-2 and average 22.5 points per contest, while the 2-4 Eagles allow 24.5 points defensively. Nacua caught 129 passes for 1,715 yards and 10 touchdowns in 16 games during the 2025 season.

What to watch: Kickoff between the Rams and Eagles is scheduled for later today. Los Angeles will look to capitalize on his availability against the Philadelphia secondary.
