Puka Nacua Breaks More Records with Long Touchdown Catch

Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua continues his historic rookie campaign

Puka Nacua continues to break records and add to his historic rookie campaign. On Sunday, Nacua caught a 70-yard touchdown pass from Matthew Stafford. Nacua took a perfectly-placed ball from Stafford and outran the secondary for the score.

With the catch, Nacua broke the record for the most receiving yards by a Rams wide receiver. He also surpassed 1,000 receiving yards on the season. Perhaps most impressively, Nacua now has three games with 150+ scrimmage yards this season. That is tied for the most in a single season by any NFL wide receiver. He is now tied with Randy Moss and Ja'Marr Chase.

Nacua received a shout-out from LeBron James after he surpassed the Rams receiving record.

Nacua, who was selected in the fifth round out of BYU, has been the steal of the 2023 NFL Draft.
