NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports the Rams are “confident” Puka Nacua (calf) will play in Week 7 against the Raiders.

25 October 2026

Nacua is going to test out his calf issue in warmups. Rapoport said Nacua isn’t necessarily dealing with a calf strain. He simply didn’t feel he could explode like he needed to. Nacua’s groin injury was described similarly earlier this year. Fantasy managers will want to keep an eye on this injury ahead of kickoff. If Nacua can’t go, Jordan Whittington will take on a larger role in the offense.
