Rams WR Puka Nacua’s knee injury is not believed to be serious, per sources. His status on Sunday’s game at Seattle still is to be determined, but it does not appear to be any type of significant injury.

#Rams WR Puka Nacua, who was limited today in practice after suffering a knee injury, is expected to be fine, source says. Not a major injury. Huge sigh of relief after his 106-yard game in his return to the lineup last week.

Rams signed P Ty Zentner to practice squad, team announced. He is the second punter to be signed. Ethan Evans was out Wednesday because of illness, per special teams coordinator Chase Blackburn

Ethan Evans (illness) is out for Sunday’s game. Rams will decide which of the two practice squad punters to elevate, with an emphasis on who they feel will be the better holder for their kicking unit.

Puka Nacua “banged his knee” in practice but Sean McVay says there is no structural damage from the contact with the ground. He won’t practice today and will be questionable for Sunday but McVay is not counting out the potential that he plays.
This is the third issue with the same knee for Nacua over the last few months, but McVay maintains that he doesn’t think Nacua will have to manage it through the rest of the season, saying he hoped this was more of “a scare”.
