Rams' Puka Nacua in Rehab Amid Antisemitic Allegations

Los Angeles Rams wide‑receiver Puka Nacua is in rehab, a period that began before a lawsuit accusing him of an antisemitic remark and shoulder biting. His lawyer says the rehab predates the claims.

Puka Nacua, the Rams’ star wide‑receiver, has been in a rehabilitation program for an extended period, according to his attorney Levi McCathern. The lawyer emphasized that the rehab began before the lawsuit was filed and is intended to improve the player’s overall behavior.

The lawsuit, filed by Madison Atiabi, alleges that Nacua made an antisemitic remark and bit her on the shoulder. McCathern said the decision to enter rehab was not a direct response to the accusations but a personal step toward better conduct.
