Puka Nacua Remains a Must-Start Fantasy Receiver for Week 10

Saturday, November 8, 2:55 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua continues to be a spectacular fantasy option heading into Week 10 against the San Francisco 49ers. The 24-year-old has 61 catches for 711 receiving yards and three receiving touchdowns this year, ranking as the overall WR4 in PPR leagues -- and he would be in the running for WR1 if he hadn't missed a game and a half in October. Nacua should continue to be deployed in all fantasy leagues, and managers shouldn't give the decision a second thought. In his last outing against the Niners, the star receiver caught 10 passes for 85 yards and a touchdown. Meanwhile, San Francisco has surrendered the sixth-most receptions and eighth-most receiving yards to opposing wide receivers in 2025.

Matthew Golden Practicing Again on Thursday

Thursday, November 13, 1:44 PM

Green Bay Packers rookie first-round wide receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder) is practicing again on Thursday, according to ESPN's Rob Demovsky. Golden was listed as limited for the team's walkthrough practice on Wednesday, and head coach Matt LaFleur said early in the week that the team would ease the 22-year-old back onto the field after a shoulder injury kept him from playing in Monday night's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. LaFleur also said that the rookie was really close to playing on Monday, which makes it sound like Golden has a pretty good chance of playing in Week 11 versus the New York Giants. The 23rd overall pick back in April out of Texas has plenty of long-term upside, but he's failed to stand out in Green Bay's crowded WR room in his first eight NFL games, catching 23 passes for 262 yards and no touchdowns.
