Puka Nacua caught 14-of-19 targets for 150 yards and one touchdown in the Rams’ Week 9 win over the Commanders.

Nacua was targeted early and often by Matthew Stafford in this one. He caught three-of-four targets for 29 yards on the Rams’ first offensive drive and entered halftime with a 9-86-0 line on 11 targets. Coming out of the half, Nacua immediately caught back-to-back passes of 12 and 15 yards on a drive that ended with a Blake Corum touchdown run, and in the fourth quarter he made an impressive leaping grab for a seven-yard score to put the Rams up 20-13. Nacua has now scored in each of his last three games and has topped 100 yards three times this season. He’s the only reliable target in the Rams’ passing game and will, as usual, profile as a high-end WR1 next week against the Cardinals.
