Rams coach Sean McVay 'kicking himself' after Puka Nacua's knee injury on final play likely lands him on IR
Sean McVay said he's "kicking himself" over the final play that left Puka Nacua with knee and turf toe injuries likely sending him to injured reserve.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua is expected to go on injured reserve due to MCL and PCL sprains in his right leg, along with turf toe, sustained on the final play of Sunday’s game. Head coach Sean McVay expressed personal responsibility for the play call that resulted in Nacua’s injury, admitting he has replayed the decision in his mind. This injury, coupled with Davante Adams’ existing absence, significantly impacts the Rams’ receiving corps, potentially prompting them to seek additional players via trade.
