Rams WR Puka Nacua in Rehab Amid Assault Lawsuit

The Los Angeles Rams’ All‑Pro wide receiver Puka Nacua is in a rehabilitation program, according to his attorney Levi McCathern, who said the player had been there for a substantial period before the lawsuit was filed.

The lawsuit, filed last month, accuses Nacua of making an antisemitic statement and biting a woman’s shoulder on New Year’s Eve. Nacua apologized in December after a livestream gesture that invoked antisemitic tropes. Despite the legal dispute, the 23‑year‑old remains one of the NFL’s most productive receivers, leading the league with 129 catches last season and earning 1,715 yards and 10 touchdowns. He is eligible for a contract extension this offseason.
