Puka Nacua News
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua dominated in the team's 24-23 wildcard loss to the Detroit Lions. Nacua caught nine of his 10 targets for 181 receiving yards and a 50-yard first-half touchdown. He also rushed the ball once for a loss of two yards. The 5th-round rookie set yet another record as he finished with the most receiving by a rookie WR in a playoff game. Despite his season coming to an end, Nacua continued to prove himself as one of the most dangerous receivers in all of football. Heading into next season, fantasy players should consider him in the first three rounds of drafts and ahead of Cooper Kupp.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua had one of the most dominant rookie seasons we have seen from a wide receiver. The 5th-round draft pick broke a pair of records as he ended with the most receptions and receiving yards by a rookie in a single season. He finished as a top-five fantasy receiver and won many their fantasy leagues. Nacua will now face the Detroit Lions on Sunday, who have allowed the third-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. Play him confidently in all DFS lineups as he has the potential to torch the Lions' defense.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua played more than expected in the team's Week 18 win against the San Francisco 49ers. Nacua caught four of his six targets for 41 yards and a first-quarter touchdown. While the rest of the starters on the team sat, Nacua was active to make some history. The 5th-round rookie had to play into the second half but eventually broke the single-season rookie yardage and reception records. He ended his historic season with 105 receptions for 1486 receiving yards and six touchdowns. As always, Nacua should be considered in all DFS lineups as he faces the Detroit Lions next week.

Puka Nacua was one of the biggest steals in fantasy football last season. With Cooper Kupp sidelined for the first four weeks of the season, the BYU rookie saw 52 targets in his first four NFL games.
