Puka Nacua's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua is coming off arguably the greatest rookie season ever for a wideout. He posted 105 receptions for 1,468 yards and six touchdowns, and he set a rookie record for receiving yards in a postseason game (181). It's difficult to project a better season of production in Year 2, but Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur said he has improved this offseason. "You can definitely see he's made strides. He's moving better. I know he feels more comfortable," LaFleur said. "He's in year two and that's what you expect from all the players, but you know that you're going to get it from Puka because he's just made of the right stuff." Nacua is being drafted as a mid-to-late first-round pick in PPR leagues, and if Cooper Kupp takes another step back, he could compete for an overall WR1 finish in fantasy football. Los Angeles did not add legitimate target competition in free agency or the 2024 NFL Draft.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua dominated in the team's 24-23 wildcard loss to the Detroit Lions. Nacua caught nine of his 10 targets for 181 receiving yards and a 50-yard first-half touchdown. He also rushed the ball once for a loss of two yards. The 5th-round rookie set yet another record as he finished with the most receiving by a rookie WR in a playoff game. Despite his season coming to an end, Nacua continued to prove himself as one of the most dangerous receivers in all of football. Heading into next season, fantasy players should consider him in the first three rounds of drafts and ahead of Cooper Kupp.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua had one of the most dominant rookie seasons we have seen from a wide receiver. The 5th-round draft pick broke a pair of records as he ended with the most receptions and receiving yards by a rookie in a single season. He finished as a top-five fantasy receiver and won many their fantasy leagues. Nacua will now face the Detroit Lions on Sunday, who have allowed the third-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. Play him confidently in all DFS lineups as he has the potential to torch the Lions' defense.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua played more than expected in the team's Week 18 win against the San Francisco 49ers. Nacua caught four of his six targets for 41 yards and a first-quarter touchdown. While the rest of the starters on the team sat, Nacua was active to make some history. The 5th-round rookie had to play into the second half but eventually broke the single-season rookie yardage and reception records. He ended his historic season with 105 receptions for 1486 receiving yards and six touchdowns. As always, Nacua should be considered in all DFS lineups as he faces the Detroit Lions next week.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua will play in Week 18 despite the majority of the team's starters sitting. Nacua will be playing for one reason and that is to set rookie records. The 5th-round pick is just 29 receiving yards away from breaking the single-season rookie receiving record, set by Bill Groman in 1960. He is also just four receptions away from setting the record for most receptions by a rookie in a single season, set by Jaylen Waddle just two seasons ago. While Nacua may very well only play until he locks in the records, he has a reasonably high floor and should be played against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 18.
