Puka Nacua injury update
UPDATE: Nacua is back on the sideline and has his helmet on, but don't be surprised if the Rams sit him the rest of the game amid what is a blowout.
UPDATE: The Rams have announced that Nacua is QUESTIONABLE to return due to a chest injury.
Nacua was quickly taken to the locker room by trainers, which isn't a good sign. It looks like he has a shoulder issue.
Puka Nacua left the game after that jet sweep, and after being evaluated by L.A.'s medical staff, he's headed to the locker room. Appears that trainers were evaluating his shoulder.
