Activated from IR, likely active Thursday The Rams activated Nacua (knee) from injured reserve Thursday ahead of a Week 8 matchup with the Vikings, but he remains questionable for that contest, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network...
Impact Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, there's an expectation that Nacua will be able to play Thursday, but the Rams won't make a decision until they see how he fares in pregame warmups. Nacua made a speedy recovery from the PCL sprain in his right knee that he suffered Week 1, but both he and Cooper Kupp (ankle) should be back in action for the Rams in Week 8.

Impact Nacua has missed the Rams' last five games while recovering from a PCL sprain in his right knee, but he took a monumental step forward Tuesday, when he was cleared to practice after being designated for return from injured reserve. Nacua was listed as a limited participant in practices Tuesday and Wednesday, and he'll presumably go through another workout early Thursday before the Rams decide on his status as the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff approaches. Since Nacua remains on IR, the Rams would have to officially add him back to the 53-man roster prior to the 4 p.m. ET deadline for roster moves in order for him to be eligible to play Thursday. Given the length of his absence along with the fact that he only recently resumed practicing a few days ago, Nacua could be eased back into action if he ends up playing Week 8.

Listed as questionable for TNF Nacua (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against Minnesota, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Impact The Rams designated Nacua for a return from injured reserve Tuesday and apparently have seen enough in practice to keep the door open for a Week 8 appearance. If nothing else, this is a strong sign he's on track to play in a Week 9 matchup with the Seahawks 10 days later (Nov. 3). Fellow Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Thursday's game.

Cleared to practice The Rams designated Nacua (knee) for return from injured reserve Tuesday.
Impact Nacua will receive the green light to resume practicing with the Rams this week after he had missed each of the last five games while recovering from the PCL sprain he suffered in the season-opening loss to the Lions. Though Nacua is eligible for reinstatement to the 53-man roster at any time, the Rams are unlikely to activate him ahead of Thursday's game against the Vikings. Instead, if Nacua is able to get a full week of practice under his belt in Week 9, he could be a more realistic candidate to return to action Nov. 3 in Seattle.

Likely out until at least Week 8 Nacua (knee) will likely be out at least until Week 8, Fox's Jay Glazer reported on Fox NFL Sunday.
Impact The Rams will apparently be without both Nacua and teammate Cooper Kupp at least through their Week 6 bye, meaning more targets for Demarcus Robinson, Tutu Atwell and Jordan Whittington.

Working on side field Wednesday Nacua (knee), who remains on IR, is working to the side at Wednesday's practice with a compression sleeve on his right leg, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Impact Nacua is working with the strength and conditioning staff to the side at Wednesday's practice alongside Cooper Kupp (ankle), who has been ruled out for Week 4. The earliest possible date Nacua will be eligible to come off IR and play will be Week 7 against the Raiders on Oct. 20, after Los Angeles' bye, but that would be optimistic considering the 5-to-7-week recovery timetable he was initially given upon being diagnosed with a PCL sprain. That could leave the second-year wideout in danger of not only missing Week 7, but also the following Thursday night matchup against the Vikings in Week 8. On the plus side, while Kupp has already been ruled out for Week 4 against the Bears and may also miss Week 5 versus Green Bay, the veteran wideout seems like a better candidate to be ready to retake the field following Los Angeles' bye.
