Rams coach Sean McVay points to unlikely culprit behind Puka Nacua injury
Developed over time first seen 2 hours ago
Rams head coach Sean McVay says he is questioning his decision to call a jet sweep on the final play against Washington, after Puka Nacua injured his knee on the run. Nacua is headed to injured reserve, leaving Los Angeles without a star receiver as it pursues a playoff place.
McVay said he feels responsible and has replayed the decision, wondering whether another play could have gained a first down without exposing Nacua to a forceful hit. The Rams also lost Davante Adams to a hamstring injury in an earlier game against Arizona, which they lost 18-16. At 5-4, Los Angeles is one game behind Green Bay for the NFC’s final Wild Card spot, with four of its next five opponents also in playoff contention.
