From the article

Puka Nacua won't play in Week 3. There has been some confusion surrounding his injury, shifting from a preseason hip flexor issue to a groin injury and now a questionable designation with a hip injury, but Sean McVay has said Nacua is not dealing with a hernia. Groin and hip injuries average around a two-week absence, and the historical data for wide receivers is encouraging, with a relatively low risk of lingering declines in fantasy production, snap share, or target share.

Nacua out Week 3; hip/groin injury targets Week 4 return with low re-injury risk.
