WOODLAND HILLS, Calif. – The Rams on Tuesday designated wide receiver Puka Nacua (knee) for return. Nacua returned to practice Tuesday.
The move opens the 21-day window for the team to determine whether to activate Nacua off of Injured Reserve (IR).
Nacua was estimated as a limited participant on Tuesday's injury report; the Rams conducted a walkthrough Tuesday.
Nacua originally landed on IR after re-aggravating a preseason knee injury against the Lions in Week 1. He had 4 catches for 35 yards against Detroit prior to exiting that game due to injury.
In 2023, Nacua recorded 105 receptions for 1,486 yards and 6 touchdowns; his receptions and receiving yards both set new NFL rookie records.
