Rams may not extend Puka Nacua and 2023 draftees this offseason
Summary

The Los Angeles Rams are reportedly unlikely to extend the contracts of Puka Nacua and other members of their 2023 draft class this offseason. The team's recent acquisition of Myles Garrett has increased their financial commitments, impacting their approach towards extending younger players. Sources indicate that Nacua, Byron Young, Kobie Turner, and Steve Avila may not receive extensions in the coming weeks, despite expectations that Nacua could command a record-setting deal. The Rams have yet to finalize decisions on their roster as they navigate contract negotiations, a shift from their approach in previous years.
