Puka Nacua in Rehab to Improve Behavior, Says Lawyer

Puka Nacua will continue to attend a California rehab facility for an extended period, his attorney said, as the Los Angeles Rams player faces antisemitic accusations.

Puka Nacua, the Los Angeles Rams tight end, is scheduled to remain at a California rehab facility for an extended period, according to his attorney Levi McCathern. The lawyer said the program is aimed at improving the player's overall behavior in all aspects of his life.

The rehab news follows a series of controversies, including an antisemitic gesture during a December livestream and a lawsuit from a Los Angeles woman who claims Nacua made an antisemitic remark and bit her shoulder. Nacua has denied the allegations in a statement shared with ABC.
