LOS ANGELES, California — The Los Angeles Rams, based in Los Angeles County, California, have another injury concern: top wide receiver Puka Nacua left Thursday's practice early with a calf injury. According to the New York Post, Nacua was limited in practice, and head coach Sean McVay is expected to provide an update on Friday. The Rams travel to face the Las Vegas Raiders at Allegiant Stadium on Sunday in Week 7.

Nacua has battled injuries all season; lower-back, groin and hip issues previously sidelined him for games against the New York Giants and the Denver Broncos. The Rams' injury list keeps growing: Grupe tore an ACL in the game against the Arizona Cardinals and is out for the season; defensive tackle Poona Ford is done for the year with a triceps injury; Kobie Turner is expected to miss four to six weeks with a groin injury; and wide receiver Davante Adams tore a hamstring, is expected to miss six to ten weeks and will undergo surgery.

The Rams lost 18-16 to the Cardinals last week and sit at 2-4. Nacua led the league with 129 receptions last season and finished second in Offensive Player of the Year voting.
