Rams WR Puka Nacua left practice with a knee injury, status for Week 9 unclear

Puka Nacua left Thursday’s practice early with a knee injury and was unable to do his scheduled press conference

Puka Nacua’s comeback may have been put on hold after the star wide receiver suffered a knee injury during Thursday’s practice.

Nacua, who was set to speak to the media, had to cancel his appearance due to the injury. According to Rams reporter Stu Jackson, Nacua will be listed as a limited participant on the Rams’ injury report, calling into question his availability for this weekend.

Nacua missed five games this season with a knee injury, forcing the Rams to put him on IR. At this point, it is unclear what caused Nacua’s injury but it’s obviously a concern for the Rams as they battle for first place in the NFC West when they travel to Seattle on Sunday.

The last time the Rams played in Seattle, it was Nacua’s NFL debut where he put up 10 receptions for 119 yards.
