Puka, is he going to play? Is he not going to play? If you have Puka on your team, stop what you're doing right now... he felt that his calf was bothering him. He was not able to explode and cut and do all the things that he wanted to do with his calf injury. And then he did not practice on Friday. If I had to guess right now, I would guess that Puka slightly leans towards not playing.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

Calf injury; likely out but S-tier if active despite limitations

Calf injury sustained during Thursday practice limiting his ability to explode and cut; did not practice Friday. Source leans toward him not playing but keeps him in S-tier rankings due to his desire to play and the Rams' playoff desperation. If confirmed active on Sunday, source will start him regardless of limitation level.
