Rams Receiver Puka Nacua Enters Private Rehab, Disputes Lawsuit Claims

The move comes during reported contract talks with the Rams.

Overview

  • Nacua has checked into a private rehabilitation program on a voluntary basis, his attorney said, to focus on health and personal growth.
  • His lawyer said he began treatment before the March civil suit was filed and that the stay is not connected to the claims.
  • The lawsuit alleges he made an antisemitic remark and bit a woman on New Year’s Eve in Los Angeles, following a December apology for a separate livestream gesture.
  • Nacua and his attorney reject the allegations and say video evidence will contradict the accuser’s account.
  • He led the NFL last season with 129 catches and 1,715 yards, and his camp says he plans to finish treatment in time for offseason workouts known as OTAs.
