Puka Nacua was spotted inebriated in the middle of the street after Super Bowl LX. The Los Angeles Rams star wide receiver was the subject of a viral video on X following the Seattle Seahawks win over the New England Patriots.
Emmanuel Acho saw the video and issued a warning to the All-Pro wideout.
“We gotta watch Puka… We are seeing these behavioral issues and if they don’t get addressed… I have questions.” Acho said on a Monday episode of Speak Easy.

This is the latest off-field issue involving Nacua. It follows the live-streaming incident after the Rams’ Week 14 win over the Arizona Cardinals and the Adin Ross livestream.
Puka Nacua had the best statistical season of his professional career in 2025. He ended the campaign with a stat line of 129 receptions, 1,715 yards and 10 touchdowns. He led the league in receptions and receiving yards per game.
Puka Nacua eyeing new contract with the Los Angeles Rams
Puka Nacua is one of the most important players on Sean McVay’s offense. The BYU Cougars product played a major role in Matthew Stafford’s first MVP Award, and his consistency has made life easier for the Rams since he entered the league.
Nacua is eligible for his first contract extension. He’s entering his fourth year as one of the league’s best wide receivers. Rams general manager Les Snead knows how important it is to secure Nacua’s future.
“It seems simple, right? If you’re one of the best at what you do and obviously he’s evolved into one of the best things, that’s a pretty simple contract because it’s pretty self-explanatory where you fall in the ecosystem and the hierarchy. There are also so many variables.
“Maybe there are so many variables that go into that make it more complex than it would seem on the surface level. Similar to a few players we’ve had in the past that have been at that level in the ecosystem, you have to begin communication and begin working through it to come up with win-win solution.” Snead said during a season debrief.
Puka Nacua is one of three All-Pro caliber wide receivers eligible for extensions this offseason. Seattle Seahawks’ Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Baltimore Ravens’ Zay Flowers are the other big-name wideouts set for their first big paydays.
The ball is in the Rams’ court as they look to continue their push for the second Super Bowl win of the Sean McVay era. Keeping Nacua and Stafford on the roster is highly recommended.
