STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Nacua's $5.75M salary undervalues his elite production pace and contract-year upside.

Nacua is in a contract year and actively participating in Los Angeles Rams training camp despite earning just $5.75M this season. Despite having more career yards and receptions in fewer games played than Chris Olave, Nacua is being paid nearly $10M less. The source credits off-field issues and rehabilitation from last season as factors limiting his current compensation, but notes he is on pace for one of the most productive starts to a receiver's career in NFL history and that it would take a lot to derail his forthcoming massive payday.
