The Los Angeles Rams will be without their aerial ace for a significant amount of time, and fans are predicting bad things to come for the franchise.

On Monday, head coach Sean McVay confirmed to reporters that wide receiver Puka Nacua would be entering injured reserve after suffering MCL and PCL sprains and turf toe on the final snap of Sunday’s 20-13 win over the Washington Commanders. He added:

“I’d be lying to you if I said I haven’t questioned the decision-making on that last play over and over in my head… It’s stuff that I feel tremendous responsibility for, and we’ve got to be able to figure out how to protect these guys while also putting them in positions that help our team and allow them to be able to shine. He’s a guy we have to be intentional about, because it’s a bummer.”

Much surprise and outrage emanated from the development:

As it stands, the Rams are without both of their top receiving targets, as Davante Adams is also currently sitting on IR after rupturing his hamstring in Week 6 against the Arizona Cardinals.
