Puka Nacua

Rams activated WR Puka Nacua (knee) from injured reserve.

NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported earlier today that there was “optimism” around the potential return for Nacua in Week 8, but the Rams made it official just hours before they kickoff against the Vikings. The question now becomes how much Nacua will play. His 21-day return window was opened just two days ago, and it’s not often we see teams activate a player so early into the process. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported the Rams “won’t decide until pregame warmups how much he can play, but the plan is to play him.” Fantasy managers eager to insert Nacua into their lineups should do so with caution, as a low-snap count could prove detrimental for his Week 8 outlook.
