SEATTLE — Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua was ejected for throwing a punch in the second quarter of Sunday’s 26-20 overtime win against the Seattle Seahawks.
After quarterback Matthew Stafford‘s pass intended for Nacua was intercepted by cornerback Riq Woolen, Nacua got into a scuffle with linebacker Tyrel Dodson. Nacua threw a punch at Dodson and was ejected from the game.
Nacua, who was active Sunday after an injury scare during practice Thursday, had one catch for 11 yards before the ejection. He had played 26 of 30 offensive snaps for the Rams.
Nacua missed five games this season on injured reserve with a knee injury. He returned from IR in Week 8.
The Seahawks scored after the turnover and 15-yard penalty on Nacua to take a 13-3 lead into halftime.
