NFL news: Rams’ Puka Nacua responds to Sydney Sweeney’s dating preferences

Los Angeles Rams star Puka Nacua is known for his plays on the field, but the All-Pro wide receiver made his latest play off the field.

Sydney Sweeney opened up about her male type in a recent interview with Cosmopolitan, and Nacua took to social media to let the mega star know he fit the description.

“Athletic, outgoing and funny. I’m an athletic girl, so someone needs to be able to climb a mountain with me, go skydiving with me. And someone who loves their family,” Sweeney said.

Nacua saw Sweeney’s comments on social media and retweeted them with a simple message.

“I love skydiving,” Nacua posted on X.

The 24-year-old is fresh off the Rams’ loss to the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Championship Game. Nacua caught nine passes for 165 yards and a touchdown in the game.
