Puka Nacua Questionable To Face The 49ers
1 year agoLos 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.
