Heading into Sunday, Nacua has already hauled in an astounding 101 passes for 1,445 yards and five touchdowns.
So even if he’s unable to have a record-setting performance this weekend, his first year in the NFL has already been very successful.
Looking back, it’s pretty crazy that Nacua wasn’t selected during the first four rounds of the 2023 draft.
With his performance for the Rams this season, there are definitely a number of teams that are kicking themselves for not taking a chance on him in last year’s draft.
At the same time, Nacua also landed in a very ideal situation.
He’s obviously a very talented pass-catcher, but having Los Angeles head coach Sean McVay as his offense’s play-caller and Matthew Stafford as his quarterback has certainly made it easier for the rookie to adjust to the pro level.
