Rams WR Puka Nacua expected to play vs. Eagles on Sunday - Rams Wire

Myles Garrett remains sidelined by a knee injury but the Los Angeles Rams are set to get one of their other big stars back on Sunday afternoon. Sean McVay told reporters on Wednesday that he expects Puka Nacua to play against the Philadelphia Eagles this week.

Nacua has missed the last two games with a hip/groin injury that he suffered in practice leading up to Week 2. He has not practiced since, but he returned on Wednesday in a limited capacity.

The Rams went 1-1 without Nacua but will now hope to get back on track with him on offense. Nacua led the NFL in receptions and receiving yards per game last season, establishing himself as one of the best receivers in football.

In Nacua's place, the Rams have used a committee alongside Davante Adams. Jordan Whittington, Konata Mumpfield and Xavier Smith have all played meaningful snaps, with Tutu Atwell also contributing in a limited capacity.

The Rams face the Eagles in Philadelphia at 1 p.m. ET on Sunday.
