Is Puka Nacua playing today? Latest on Rams WR's Week 7 status

Los Angeles Rams receiver Puka Nacua injured his calf in practice on Thursday, causing panic to set in among fans. He then sat out Friday's practice and was given a questionable tag for Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders .

It's not the way the Rams hoped to enter this pivotal game, especially given all the injuries they've suffered over the last few weeks. Puka Nacua is arguably their most important player besides Matthew Stafford, so losing him for any amount of time is costly.

What is Nacua's status for today's game? Here's the latest on what we know about the Rams' star receiver.

Sean McVay said on Friday that Nacua is questionable and will work out before the game in an attempt to determine his status. It's not a good sign that he was unable to practice on Friday, but he wasn't ruled out or given a doubtful tag, so there's at least a chance he'll suit up.

The Rams are already without Davante Adams after he ruptured his hamstring last week against the Cardinals , so their wide receiver depth chart is getting thin.
