Sources – Rams expect Puka Nacua (knee) to play against Seahawks

The Los Angeles Rams expect wide receiver Puka Nacua to play on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks, although he is listed as questionable due to a knee injury he suffered in practice, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Nacua left practice early Thursday after hitting his knee on the ground and did not practice Friday. Rams coach Sean McVay said Friday that there was nothing “structurally” wrong with Nacua's knee and expressed optimism about his chances of playing Sunday.

Nacua first injured his right knee during a joint practice on August 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers and missed three weeks of practice due to the injury. He then aggravated the injury in the Rams' season opener and spent the next five weeks on injured reserve.

Nacua was activated from IR in Week 8 against the Minnesota Vikings and had seven catches for 106 yards.

In two games this season, Nacua has 11 catches for 141 yards. As a rookie last season, Nacua set records for the most receptions (105) and receiving yards (1,486) for a rookie in NFL history.
