Marca

Puka Nacua has entered the NFL record books by becoming the fastest player to reach 50 receptions in a season. After a 10-catch, 85-yard game against the 49ers, the Rams rookie now has 52 receptions in just five games. He broke Cooper Kupp’s previous mark of 49 catches from 2022 and is now on pace to threaten Calvin Johnson’s all-time yardage record and Michael Thomas’s single-season receptions record. Nacua’s explosive start is proving that he’s not just a rising star but potentially one of the league’s most dominant receivers.
