Rams WR Puka Nacua dealing with minor groin soreness

Matthew Stafford is neither a trainer nor a doctor. But as a quarterback entering his 18th pro season, he has an idea of what a serious injury looks like.

“I did not [see what happened to Puka Nacua],” Stafford said, via Lindsey Thiry of ESPN. “I’m not really sure what the issue was, but nobody ran up to me in a panic, so I don’t think it was anything too major.”

The story said head coach Sean McVay did not have a real update on why Nacua left Tuesday’s joint practice with the Cowboys either. While we know we can really ever trust players with any kind of injury information, especially their own, it's at least maybe a good sign Stafford came out and said he didn't think the injury was serious. But, we'll keep monitoring it and provide any updates.

Quarterback Jalen Hurts' speed has been standing out at Eagles' training camp, and members of the defense are taking notice.

"I think Jalen's having a good camp. I think he looks faster," said defensive coordinator Vic Fangio. "Obviously we can't touch him during practice so there's always that debate whether you had him or not [for a sack] and I think there's been a few times where our guys think they had him and they really didn't."

As the story pointed out, Hurts has been a force in the running game for years, racking up 3,554 yards and 63 touchdowns on the ground over six NFL seasons. But last season, he had the fewest rushing attempts (105), yards (421) and touchdowns (8) in a season since he became the full-time starter in 2021. He also wasn't passing the eye test, and appeared to be slow and unsure at times when it looked like he was about to take off. Any improvement in Hurts' rushing numbers over last year will add value to his fantasy worth this season. He's ranked fifth on our QB list heading into drafts.

Adam Schefter said Puka Nacua and Josh Jacobs could face suspensions.

Schefter said things are going on behind closed doors at the NFL that he doesn't have access to. He said he believes both the Nacua and Jacobs cases are being investigated, and are under review by the league - and - discipline is still a potential option. Schefter added by the time the regular season opens, probably sooner, we'll have more clarity about those players. Schefter's list also included Hill, who is still a free agent.
