We chuckled when the Rams listed WR Puka Nacua (knee) as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Vikings. He's practiced just twice -- Tuesday and Wednesday -- since going down in Week 1. But, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, "there is now optimism" that Nacua could play Minnesota.
Pelissero: "He's not gonna go out there probably and play 70 snaps. He's only had one real practice. But he's had a good week. They put him through some things [Wednesday]. I imagine they'll put him through some more things [Thursday]. If all goes well, it seems like we're trending toward Puka Nacua at least being active for the Rams tonight."
This is a major surprise -- and could put fantasy owners in a tough spot. While it'd be tough to bench an active Nacua, it sounds like he'd be on some type of snap count if he ends up playing.
We'll look for more info on the situation and get the Rams' inactives around 6:45 pm ET tonight.
