Los Angeles Rams receiver Puka Nacua is expected to return Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles, the Los Angeles Times reported on Sept. 30, 2026. He has been out for the last two games with a hip injury.
According to the Times, Nacua took part in an on-field workout last Sunday in Denver, ahead of the Rams' game against the Broncos. The paper also reported that he was listed as a limited participant in practice on Wednesday, based on the team's injury report.
The report quotes coach Sean McVay's view of the potential return. "It adds a great football player that's a huge part of our offense," McVay said, calling it "a big deal."
Los Angeles is looking to bounce back after that game in Denver. The Times notes that the 30-26 loss to the Broncos moved the Rams to 1-2 on the season.
The Rams next travel to Philadelphia on Sunday. The expectation that Nacua will play comes from the Times' report, so his status is worth checking again closer to the game.
