Nacua's 11 catches heavy but vertical stretch ability has disappeared

Nacua remains the focal point of the Rams offense with 11 catches on 12 targets for 80 yards and a touchdown on a screen, but the source expresses concern about his vertical stretch ability disappearing. He doesn't look like the version from a year ago despite battling injury all season; the loss of his ability to stretch the field vertically—the element that made him an offensive player of the year candidate in 2025—is a notable downside to his otherwise heavy workload.
