Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua will be placed on injured reserve with a PCL sprain, head coach Sean McVay said Monday, per Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic.
The injury is an aggravation of a knee ailment that he sustained in the summer, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The BYU product is still undergoing testing to determine the severity of the injury, Schefter adds.
The 23-year-old caught four passes for 35 yards before exiting the Rams’ Week 1 overtime loss. Nacua also had one carry for seven yards. He reentered the game briefly after aggravating the injury but was ultimately carted to the locker room at halftime before being ruled out of the contest.
