Rams HC Sean McVay said Thursday that WR Puka Nacua will be "ready to roll" for Week 1. He suffered a bursa sac injury to his knee on August 4 but got back on the practice field on Monday and is now a full-go, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

2024 Fantasy Football Impact

McVay has said all along that Nacua will be ready for Week 1, and he's clearly on track. At this point, there's no reason to believe the knee will be a factor in Nacua's 2024 campaign.

Nacua's ADP slipped into the early second round after the knee injury, but don't be surprised if he lands back in the late first in upcoming fantasy drafts. That's where he belongs.
