Puka Nacua won’t be playing in Super Bowl LX after the Los Angeles Rams lost to the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC championship game, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have a rooting interest in the game. However, his feelings are complicated.
On one hand, the New England Patriots have a chance to beat the team that beat the Rams. On the other hand, the Seahawks are representing the NFC and the Rams’ division — plus one of Nacua’s best friends, receiver Cooper Kupp, plays for Seattle.

Harrison Phillips went from winning 14 games with the Minnesota Vikings in 2024 to losing 14 games with the New York Jets in 2025.

Blaine already reported that the Los Angeles Rams will play the San Francisco 49ers in Australia for the 2026 season, and I wanted to own that I shared last year that L.A. would be taking on the Philadelphia Eagles in 2026 in another continent.
I should’ve put “reportedly” in the headline because it was reportedly wrong, and I was certainly wrong.
Shame on me, I’ll try to be more careful, but either way, L.A. Rams will be taking their talents “down under” in 2026, and that’s pretty wild. If nothing else, it’s new.
Happy Friday. We made it.
