Random Ramsdom: Puka Nacua’s future contract isn’t necessarily a problem
Los Angeles Rams News and Links for 3/28/26
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - MARCH 07: Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua attends the UFC 326 event at T-Mobile Arena on March 07, 2026 in Las Vegas, Nevada. (Photo by Chris Unger/Zuffa LLC) Puka Nacua has been in the news, and it hasn’t been the most positive of headlines , but for anyone saying that the Los Angeles Rams are in a bad spot because they have to pay Puka Nacua, I think we can push back on that. The reason that Nacua is commanding such a massive contract extension is because he’s a been a top wide receiver in the league since the Rams drafted him.
L. A. doesn’t NEED to extend him, he is still under contract, L.
A. can franchise tag him in the future if needed, Les Snead and the team still have the option to trade Nacua. So, in terms of Nacua and the football stuff, that’s all good.
In terms of Nacua getting into “trouble” or the controversies he’s faced several times over the last few months; that’s a different conversation. I want to thank everyone for checking out Turf Show Times, happy Saturday and comment on whatever you want! You make this site what it is!
