The Los Angeles Rams\u2019 win over the Washington Commanders may have come at a cost. All-Pro wide receiver Puka Nacua suffered a knee injury on the Rams\u2019 final offensive snap of Sunday\u2019s 20-13 win over the Commanders and will undergo an MRI on Monday to determine the extent of the injury, according to NFL Network. The team reportedly does not believe Nacua suffered a torn ACL, but the imaging should provide more clarity. The injury happened on a third-and-11 with less than two minutes remaining. Nacua went in motion and took a jet sweep before he was tackled by Commanders safety Jeremy Reaves. He got up and stayed on the field as the Rams\u2019 offense stayed out for a potential fourth-down attempt, which was wiped out by a delay-of-game penalty before Los Angeles punted. Nacua was later seen being looked at by the training staff on the sideline. Before the injury, Nacua was the centerpiece of the Rams\u2019 offense. He finished with 14 catches for 150 yards and a touchdown, including a leaping 7-yard score in the corner of the end zone early in the fourth quarter that broke a 13-13 tie and proved to be the game-winner. Los Angeles was already thin at receiver, with Davante Adams on IR, making any extended absence a significant blow. The win was the Rams\u2019 third straight and improved them to 5-4. Nacua, a two-time Pro Bowler, has been one of the league\u2019s most productive receivers since the Rams selected him in the fifth round of the 2023 draft out of BYU.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
