Rams WR Puka Nacua (chest) is not listed on the final injury report. He practiced all week, including full workouts on Thursday and Friday. Nacua should be glued into Week 10 fantasy lineups.

Rams WR Puka Nacua did not return to Sunday's game vs. the Saints after suffering a rib injury in the third quarter, but he spent the rest of the game on the sidelines with his helmet. “I think he's going to be good,” HC Sean McVay said afterward. “He got his ribs. He could have come back in the game, but we kind of had command. Felt like it was the smart thing.” It sounds like Nacau should be ready for Week 10, but we’ll keep a close eye on his status throughout the coming week.

Rams WR Puka Nacua is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Saints with a chest injury. He got banged up on a three-yard carry to convert a fourth-and-one in the third quarter. Stay tuned for an update.

Rams WR Puka Nacua (ankle) is not listed on the final injury report for Sunday’s game vs. the Saints. He practiced all week, including full workouts on Thursday and Friday. Nacua is ready to step back into a full-time role and should be locked back into fantasy lineups.

Rams WR Puka Nacua (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday morning's game vs. the Jaguars in London. He'll get a Week 8 bye and seemingly has a chance to return for Week 9. Nacua's absence leaves Davante Adams as Los Angeles' clear-cut No. 1 WR -- and an elite fantasy play. Jordan Whittington and Tutu Atwell, who's back from his hamstring injury, should be close to full-time players as the No. 2 and 3 WRs. They both sit in WR4 territory in the Week 7 rankings.

Rams WR Puka Nacua will "likely" miss time with an ankle sprain, NFL Network reports. "It would make sense for Nacua to be out next week against the Jaguars, then LAR has a bye to regroup and assess," Ian Rapoport tweeted. It continues to sound like Nacua dodged a serious injury, and the Week 8 bye comes at a nice time. But fantasy owners should prepare to be without the stud WR for at least Week 7. Nacua's absence will knock Matt Stafford out of QB1 consideration. WR Davante Adams will get a significant boost in target upside, while WR Jordan Whittington could be a low-level spot starter. We'll see if WR Tutu Atwell is able to return after missing Week 6 with a hamstring injury.

Rams WR Puka Nacua has an ankle injury and is uncertain for next weekend's game vs. the Jaguars, HC Sean McVay said after the win over the Ravens. Nacua played very sparingly in the second half of that one was clearly wasn't himself. We'll track his status this coming week, but the Rams' Week 8 bye might factor into the decision on whether Nacua plays in London. QB Matt Stafford struggled without Nacua vs. Baltimore, finishing with just 181 yards and one TD on 7.0 yards per attempt.

Rams WR Puka Nacua suffered an apparent left ankle injury in the second quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Ravens. Nacua tried to get off the field but eventually needed the help of two trainers to hobble off. We'll update his status when we know more.

Update: Nacua is officially questionable to return with a foot injury.

Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Seahawks. He aggravated his knee injury on Thursday and did not practice on Friday. But Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer said this afternoon that Nacua will be a “full go” today. Get him in fantasy lineups.

ESPN's Adam Schefter tweets that Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) is expected "to be able to try to play" vs. the Seahawks today. It's notable wording from Schefter -- and a reminder that Nacua comes with elevated risk in Week 9 fantasy lineups after aggravating his knee injury in Thursday's practice. See where Nacua sits in the Week 9 WR Rankings.

The Athletic's Dianna Russini expects Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) to play vs. the Seahawks tomorrow. It doesn't exactly read like a sourced report, but Russini likely has some insider knowledge here. We'll likely get further updates on Nacua over the next 24 hours, but we're currently projecting him to play against Seattle. He'll obviously carry elevated risk in Week 9 fantasy lineups after aggravating his knee injury on Thursday. But we're also talking about a guy who went for 106 yards on just two days of practice last week. Nacua will be tough to leave out of fantasy lineups if he ends up active.

The Rams are listing WR Puka Nacua (knee) as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks. Nacua was added to Thursday's injury report after injuring the same knee that cost him time earlier this season. We'll see what he does on Friday. But HC Sean McVay said before Friday's practice that he "wouldn't bet against [Puka Nacua] playing." We're sure to get more updates on Nacua's status between now and kickoff at 4:25 pm ET on Sunday.

Update: Nacua won't practice on Friday, McVay said. He added that Nacua "banged his knee" in practice on Thursday but suffered no structural damage.

Rams WR Puka Nacua's knee injury is "not believed to be serious," a source tells ESPN's Adam Schefter. Nacua's availability for Sunday's game vs. the Seahawks is uncertain, though, Schefter adds. The Athletic's Jourdan Rodrigue reports that this latest injury is to the same knee that sidelined Nacua for most of August and Weeks 2 through 7. We'll keep you updated on his status for Week 9 and beyond.

Rams WR Puka Nacua left practice early today with a knee injury on the same knee that was previously injured. Nacua officially had a "Limiited" practice, but his status for Week 9 is up in the air now. Nacua previously missed six weeks with an injury to that right knee.

Rams WR Puka Nacua hauled in 7 of 9 targets for 106 yards in Thursday night's win over the Vikings. All three marks led the team. It was a super impressive performance from a guy who'd been out since Week 1 and had practiced just twice since coming off IR. Nacua's playing time was scaled back a bit: He played 56% of the offensive snaps and ran a route on 67% of pass plays. But his previous knee injury didn't seem to be a factor when he was on the field. Nacua created plenty of separation and ran with his usual oomph after the catch.

The Rams list WR Puka Nacua (knee) as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Vikings. He's questionable in the same way I'm questionable to break 70 on the golf course. In other words, we'd be shocked if Nacua played tomorrow after getting in just two official practices since his Week 1 knee injury. He should remain parked on fantasy benches for now.

Fox Sports' Jay Glazer reports that Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) is expected to miss "at least another month." Glazer throws out Week 8 as a potential return target for Nacua. That closely matches the 5-7 week timetable we got from ESPN's Adam Schefter after Nacua aggravated his knee injury in the opener. Fantasy players who have kept Nacua stashed since that injury should keep stashing. He still has WR1 fantasy upside over the second half of the season.
