Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua is ready for an increased role in the offense following the departure of former teammate Cooper Kupp to the Seattle Seahawks this offseason.
However, Pacua will still have two of the best veterans in the business around in quarterback Matthew Stafford and wide receiver Davante Adams. Nacua recently discussed how excited he was about what the Rams can accomplish this season with those two in the building.
“I just want to see Matthew Stafford spin it. That’s my favorite part of the day,” Nacua said of his quarterback, according to Pro Football Talk. “You wouldn’t believe how different the ball looks coming out of Matthew Stafford’s hand.”
The young wideout had just as much praise for Adams.
“Davante, as soon as he stepped into the facility has been fantastic,” Nacua said. “The ability to learn the game from another all-time great has been, I feel like I’m stealing. I’m like a kid in the candy store.
“I’ve had Matthew Stafford, Sean McVay, Cooper Kupp and now Davante Adams. My life is pretty good, I can’t complain too much. It’s gonna be fun. We signed Tutu [Atwell] back.
“We’ve got some speed, we got a bunch of young guys who are excited to play, and 17 is going to lead the way for us, and it’s gonna be fantastic to be out there on the football field with him.”
It’ll be interesting to see if the Rams and head coach Sean McVay have another deep postseason run in them.
