What happened to Puka Nacua? Live injury updates for Saints vs. Rams NFL Week 9 on Sunday 11/2/25

UPDATE: Nacua is back on the sideline.


With six minutes left in the third quarter of Sunday’s game against the Saints, Nacua took a jet sweep at the Saints 10-yard line and went for three yards. Unfortunately, he suffered an injury after getting tackled. He immediately went to the locker room and is now officially designated as questionable to return with a chest injury.

Prior to exiting, Nacua caught seven of eight targets for 95 yards and a touchdown while rushing once for three yards.

If Nacua is unable to return, Davante Adams will become a true target hog. Adams has already hauled in five of seven targets for 60 yards and two touchdowns.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
