Puka Nacua caught 11-of-12 targets for 80 yards and a touchdown in the Rams’ Week 8 win against the Chargers. 2026-11-01 20:00:02 Nacua, with Davante Adams (hamstring) sidelined, again dominated targets in the newly run-heavy LA offense. No other Rams pass catcher saw more than four targets on the day. Nacua’s touchdown came on a well-designed screen in the second half at the end of a long drive for the run-first Rams offense. Nacua, who had 41 targets over his prior four games, is among the safest players in fantasy football. He matches up against the Commanders in Week 9. |

Puka Nacua caught 8-of-10 targets for 68 yards and a touchdown in the Rams’ Week 7 win against the Raiders, adding two rushes for ten yards. 2026-10-25 22:00:03 Nacua, dealing with a calf injury, didn’t appear to be 100 percent but still got by just fine against a beatable Vegas secondary. He caught one of Matthew Stafford’s three touchdowns and led the Rams offense with ten targets. Nacua has a good chance of leading the NFL in targets for the remainder of the season with Davante Adams (hamstring) out indefinitely. His role in the LA offense makes Nacua one of the most dangerous fantasy options in the game. He gets the Chargers secondary in Week 8. |

Puka Nacua (calf) is active for Week 7 against the Raiders. 2026-10-25 16:00:02 Start him. The Rams clearly feel comfortable with their superstar playing today, and we should too. Nacua’s upside is too high for him to remain on fantasy football benches. Reporting on Nacua’s ailment suggests he is not necessarily dealing with a strain. It can perhaps be best described as muscle fatigue, though we are doctors here at Rotoworld. Re-injury is possible, but we can safely expect him to handle a large workload whenever he is on the field. Nacua is a high-end WR1. |

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports the Rams are “confident” Puka Nacua (calf) will play in Week 7 against the Raiders. 2026-10-25 10:00:02 Nacua is going to test out his calf issue in warmups. Rapoport said Nacua isn’t necessarily dealing with a calf strain. He simply didn’t feel he could explode like he needed to. Nacua’s groin injury was described similarly earlier this year. Fantasy managers will want to keep an eye on this injury ahead of kickoff. If Nacua can’t go, Jordan Whittington will take on a larger role in the offense. |

Puka Nacua (calf) is questionable to play in Week 7 against the Raiders. 2026-10-23 15:00:02 The fact that Nacua is not practicing today is a bad sign for his Week 7 availability. Ever the injury-related optimist, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported earlier today that Nacua’s injury is “more minor than anything else,” though he quickly balanced the scales by then saying that he would not call Nacua’s quick trip to the imaging room “precautionary, because it’s not nothing.” If active, Nacua should be in fantasy football lineups because his talent and workload are almost unparalleled. Unfortunately, coach Sean McVay told reporters that Nacua felt that “he wasn’t able to have some of the power and full explosion.” Nacua is on the wrong side of questionable, and the Rams obviously do not want his injury to worsen. |
