Rams receivers Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp returned to help lift the offense and the defense held on in a 30-20 win over the Minnesota Vikings.
During the offseason, Cooper Kupp co-founded a coffee company. And when the veteran Rams receiver returned to the lineup Thursday night after a four-game absence, the recently moribund offense anticipated a welcome jolt. What it got was an unexpected double shot. Receiver Puka Nacua also returned to the lineup and the two stars helped the Rams defeat the Minnesota Vikings 30-20 before 72,127 at SoFi Stadium.
The second-year pro had been on injured reserve because of a training-camp knee injury he aggravated in the season-opening defeat to the Detroit Lions. Nacua did not practice last week, and the Rams opened his 21-day window to return Monday. He was listed as limited after jog-throughs Tuesday and Wednesday. But about four hours before kickoff, the Rams announced that Nacua had been activated to the roster.
