The Rams selected Nacua, a former BYU star, with a fifth-round pick in the 2023 NFL draft. He's since developed into one of the NFL's brightest stars.

Nacua broke out in his rookie year with 105 catches for 1,486 yards and six touchdowns. He followed that up with a 77/990/3 season despite missing six games.

Last season, Nacua caught an NFL-high 129 passes for 1,715 yards and 10 touchdowns across 16 games. His 107.2 yards per game led the NFL. Nacua also finished third in the Associated Press Offensive Player of the Year race.

Thanks in part to Nacua's efforts, last year's Rams went 12-5 and scored the most points per game (30.5) in the NFL. They reached the NFC Championship Game.

The Rams look like strong favorites again this year, especially after adding reigning Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett via trade from the Cleveland Browns and returning reigning NFL MVP and quarterback Matthew Stafford.
