Rams’ Puka Nacua leaves Thursday practice with knee injury


LOS ANGELES – Second-year Los Angeles Rams receiver Puka Nacua left Thursday’s practice with a knee injury, according to a team official.

It is the same right knee that Nacua injured earlier this year, the official said. He was listed as “limited” on Thursday’s practice report. Nacua was practicing during reporters’ standard viewing portion of practice.

Nacua exited the Rams’ Week 1 overtime loss to the Detroit Lions at halftime and was later diagnosed with a sprained PCL. He also missed part of training camp after landing on his knee during a joint practice, after which head coach Sean McVay said Nacua had impacted a bursa sac in his knee.

Nacua returned early from the sprained PCL to play in last Thursday night’s win against the Minnesota Vikings. The Rams (3-4) are scheduled to play at Seattle on Sunday.

McVay is never scheduled to speak to media on Thursdays, but will have more updates on Friday morning.

This story will be updated as more information becomes available.
