Since being drafted in 2023, All-Pro wide receiver Puka Nacua has been the Los Angeles Rams' most prolific player, delivering amazing performances seemingly on a weekly basis. Nacua, who is considered one of the best players in the NFL, has only gotten better with time as he continues to bridge the gap between himself and a record left by his predecessor.
Following an eight-catch performance on Sunday, Nacua has extended his streak of games with at least five receptions to 15 straight contests. According to the Rams' PR team, that is tied for the eighth-longest streak in NFL history and is the second-longest in franchise history. He is now eight games away from tying Cooper Kupp's mark of 23 straight games from 2020-2022.

During that run, Kupp won Super Bowl LVI, Super Bowl MVP, and the 2021 NFL Offensive Player of the Year. Kupp also secured the triple crown for the 2021 season, becoming the fourth player in the Super Bowl era to do so.
Kupp's run was so dominant that when he failed to extend his streak, he did so with four catches in that contest. In the nine games Kupp played in 2022, he only missed the five-catch mark twice: once when his streak ended, and the other time was when he suffered a season-ending injury.
By the time Kupp returned to playing the following season, Nacua was an established superstar as a rookie.
