"LOS ANGELES -- Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua is expected to play Sunday against the New Orleans Saints after spraining his left ankle in Week 6, head coach Sean McVay said Monday. Nacua, who has not practiced since the injury, is expected to return to practice Wednesday. McVay said he expects Nacua to play in Week 9 "unless there's setbacks." Meanwhile, the Rams placed wide receiver Tutu Atwell on injured reserve Monday, requiring him to miss at least the next four games."
"Atwell was active for the Rams' Week 7 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars in London but only played 10 snaps. This season, Atwell has four catches for 164 yards and a touchdown. Nacua entered the game against the Ravens leading the NFL in receptions and receiving yards and had the most catches by a player in his team's first five games of a season in league history. He has 54 catches for 616 yards and two touchdowns this season."
