Puka Nacua Leaves Rams Practice Early Due to Calf Injury

Puka Nacua, a wide receiver for the Los Angeles Rams, left practice early on Thursday after sustaining a calf injury, which raises doubts about his participation in the upcoming game against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Nacua's injury adds to the Rams' challenges, as the team is already without wide receiver Davante Adams, who is on injured reserve due to a ruptured hamstring. Nacua has previously missed two games this season due to a hip issue but has been productive when healthy, recording 37 receptions for 417 yards and a touchdown in four games.

The Rams currently hold a 2-4 record and are facing a tough battle for a Wild Card spot in the NFC. If Nacua is unable to play, the team may rely on backup receivers and tight end Tyler Higbee to support quarterback Matthew Stafford.
