The Los Angeles Rams are getting stronger by the week. After some frustrating offensive performances in recent weeks, Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford will have his top two targets starting in Week 8 against the Minnesota Vikings.
On Wednesday, it was confirmed that Cooper Kupp will return to action versus Minnesota. Now, Los Angeles will have their other exciting wideout accompanying the veteran on offense.
Rams activate Nacua for Vikings game
Nacua has not played since Week 1, when he re-aggravated a knee injury.
It's hard to project a full workload for the 2023 All-Pro wideout, but his presence certainly makes life tougher for the Vikings defense. Nacua is a massive piece of the puzzle for Sean McVay's offensive unit.
Many folks have seemingly written off the Rams after their 2-4 start to the season. That seems a bit rushed, though. The NFC West is still tight, with the San Francisco 49ers dealing with a ton of injuries as the favorite entering the season.
The leader of the division, the Seattle Seahawks, are only 4-3 through seven games. With a win on Thursday, Los Angeles could pull up to 3-4. Seattle faces the 5-2 Buffalo Bills on Sunday in Week 8, too.
The return of both Kupp and Nacua are sure to help the Rams offense look much more like themselves going forward.
