US EditionRams WR Puka Nacua Doubles Down on Officiating Criticism After Loss to Seahawks
Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua accused NFL officials of making calls for TV attention during a live stream with 7 million followers, highlighting player frustration with officiating.
- On Tuesday, December 16, Puka Nacua, Los Angeles Rams wide receiver, criticized NFL officials as 'the worst' during a live stream with Adin Ross and N3on.
- Asked whether refs 'be bulls***ing' sometimes, Nacua said he was venting about calls and player blowoff and team communication that usually happens privately.

- Ahead of Thursday, December 18 at Seattle, with both teams 11-3, Nacua's comments marked his third controversy in weeks, adding to recent attention on his livestreams.
