Puka Nacua groin injury and suspension risk
Puka Nacua left the joint practice early with minor groin soreness (psoas muscle), creating a major WR depth concern. He also faces a potential suspension for Week 1 vs. 49ers. McVay expects him to return soon. A new article highlights the Rams' ability to survive a suspension by leaning on tight ends (Klare, Ferguson) in 12- and 13-personnel, referencing last season's Week 7 blowout of the Jaguars.
