Rams WR Puka Nacua in Rehab Amid Antisemitic Allegations

Rams wide‑receiver Puka Nacua is in rehab, his lawyer says he entered treatment before a lawsuit accusing him of an antisemitic remark and biting a woman’s shoulder.

Puka Nacua, the Los Angeles Rams wide‑receiver, has been in a rehabilitation program for an extended period, according to his attorney Levi McCathern. McCathern told The California Post that Nacua’s decision to enter rehab was not a reaction to the lawsuit filed by Madison Atiabi, but an effort to improve his overall behavior.

The lawsuit alleges that Nacua made an antisemitic statement and bit Atiabi on the shoulder. Nacua’s lawyer maintains that the player is innocent of any wrongdoing.
