Is Puka Nacua playing tonight? (Latest injury update for Rams vs. Bengals in NFL Week 3)

Los Angeles Rams rookie receiver Puka Nacua is listed as questionable for Monday night’s matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals, but he is expected to play, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. 

This is a great sign for the Rams, who are already without star wideout Cooper Kupp due to a hamstring injury. 

Nacua has been arguably the best rookie in the NFL so far this season, making over 10 catches in each of his first two games.
