2024 stats: 11 games | 79 rec | 990 rec yds | 12.5 ypr | 3 rec TD
Puka Nacua’s name is still ringing across the league — and the players have spoken.
The Rams’ young star wideout landed at No. 41 on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2025 list, voted on by the guys who line up across from him every Sunday.
Not bad for a season where he wasn’t even at 100%.
Battling Through, Still Producing
In 2024, Nacua suited up for 11 games, started all of them, and still led the Rams in receiving — 79 catches, 990 yards, and 3 touchdowns.
That’s not just showing up, that’s showing out… even while playing hurt.
The respect is real. His rookie year in 2023? He came in at No. 33 on the list. The drop isn’t about talent — it’s about health. And now, with the new season on deck, defenses better get ready for a fully locked-in Puka.
Rams Roll Call
Puka’s not the only Ram in the Top 100 this year:
- Kyren Williams – No. 85
- Matthew Stafford – No. 59
- Jared Verse – No. 53
- Puka Nacua – No. 41
And with Cooper Kupp no longer in the mix, you know Nacua’s about to have the spotlight all to himself. Expect him to be a centerpiece in Sean McVay’s offense.
For Island City, it’s more than just the numbers. Puka’s a reminder that work ethic, grit, and staying true to your roots will keep you in the conversation — even when the odds aren’t perfect. He’s already proven he can hang with the league’s best… now it’s time to see how far he can climb.
2025 could be the year Puka Nacua turns “respect” into “problem” for every defensive back in the NFL.
