Every Friday at 3 p.m. ET, DraftKings Sportsbook analyst Steve Buchanan and NFL guru Meghan Townsley chop up the latest injury news on Injury Report Live! Check out what they have to say about this latest injury to Puka Nacua (knee).
The Rams received a scare on Thursday, as wide receiver Puka Nacua exited practice with a knee injury. On Saturday, The Athletic’s Diana Russini reported that Nacua is expected to play this week, but his workload will be something to monitor. Assuming the second-year pro is active vs. the Seahawks, will he be the same target monster fantasy managers are accustomed to?
Meghan (@mtownsleyy) and Steve (@SBuchanan24) determined if the Rams wide receiver is a good play this week during Friday’s edition of Injury Report Live:
- Meghan would rather pay for a receiver like DeVonta Smith ($6,800) at a cheaper cost this week instead of a banged-up Nacua ($7,200).
- If you’re looking for a Rams receiver that isn’t Puka or Cooper Kupp ($7,700), Steve would lean towards Demarcus Robinson ($4,800) over Tutu Atwell ($4,700).
