Rams' Puka Nacua 'smiling' over the thought of playing the Eagles

Los Angeles Rams star receiver Puka Nacua is positioned to return for this weekend's matchup in Philadelphia after missing two consecutive matches due to a hip issue resulting in groin and abdominal discomfort. Nacua expressed great enthusiasm about rejoining his teammates following limited practice sessions on Wednesday and Thursday.

Meanwhile, the playing status of fellow standout defensive lineman Aaron Donald remains uncertain as he deals with a back injury following a defeat against Denver. Defensive coordinator Chris Shula noted that while missing both legendary contributors would test the roster, the team possesses valuable depth along the line.
