Expert Note

While teammate Cooper Kupp dropped a goose egg last week, Puka Nacua remained wildly consistent. Nacua has been a top-24 fantasy wide receiver in six straight games, and in all seven games this year in which he has played all four quarters. Nacua has a matchup in Week 16 against the New York Jets. New York ranks 27th in the NFL in DVOA versus the pass and just served up an overall WR4 performance to Jaguars' wideout Brian Thomas Jr. While Kupp could get some squeaky wheel treatment after last week's zero, Puka Nacua should continue to be an elite fantasy wide receiver.

Puka Nacua goes for 97 receiving yards in Week 15

Puka Nacua caught seven of his eight targets for 97 yards while adding 11 yards on two carries in a 12-6 win over the 49ers in Week 15's Thursday night game.

Fantasy Impact

Nacua easily led the Rams in receiving, accounting for 97 of Matthew Stafford's 160 passing yards in the low-scoring contest. Since getting over his early-season knee injury, Nacua has been a dominant fantasy asset. The Rams have also been using him in the run game as he has chipped in eight carries for 34 yards and a touchdown over his past three games. Nacua will be a high-end WR1 heading into Week 16 against the Jets.
