Rams WR Puka Nacua was ejected for throwing a hit against the Seahawks

SEATTLE – Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua was sent off for throwing a hit in the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks.

After quarterback Matthew Stafford's pass intended for Nacua was intercepted by cornerback Riq Woolen, Nacua got into a scuffle with linebacker Tyrel Dodson. Nacua threw a punch at Dodson and was ejected from the game.

Nacua, active Sunday after an injury scare at Thursday's practice, had one catch for 11 yards before being ejected. He had played 26 of 30 offensive snaps for the Rams.

Nacua missed five games as a substitute this season due to a knee injury. He returned from IR in Week 8.

The Seahawks scored after a loss of possession and a 15-yard penalty against Nacua to take a 13-3 lead into halftime.
