Puka Nacua

Before putting on the blue and gold no. 17 jersey for the Rams, Utah’s Puka Nacua wore two different blue jerseys as a football standout at Orem High School and Brigham Young University.

“With the 177th pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, the Los Angeles Rams select Puka Nacua”… and the rest is history. History for the record books. The rookie sensation broke NFL records for single-season receptions (105) and receiving yards (1,486) and single-game receptions (15) and receiving yards (181).

The 2023 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year finalist was previously honored as the High School Male Athlete of the Year at the 2019 Governor’s State of Sport Awards.
