Footballguys on Puka Nacua

Nacua's ceiling is elite with Adams out, but his questionable calf status requires confirmation.

Nacua is the highest upside receiver on the slate if he plays. He had 17 catches for 138 yards on 24 targets for 40.7 DraftKings points in Week 5, followed by six catches for 80 yards last week. Davante Adams is now out with a ruptured hamstring and tight end Terrance Ferguson is also out, which leaves even more of Matthew Stafford's targets for Nacua. Las Vegas has allowed a touchdown to a wide receiver in three straight weeks. The problem is his health: he picked up a minor calf injury in practice Thursday, didn't practice Friday and is questionable. If he's active and Sean McVay doesn't signal limitations, he's a strong play.
