Puka Nacua in Rehab to Improve Behavior, Says Lawyer

Puka Nacua will continue at a California rehab facility for a while longer, his attorney said, as he seeks to improve his overall behavior amid recent controversies.

Puka Nacua is staying at a California rehab facility for an extended period, according to his lawyer Levi McCathern, who said the player is working on his overall behavior in every aspect of his life. The rehab stint began before the antisemitic incidents and lawsuit surfaced, and it is not expected to keep him away from Rams OTAs.

Earlier this year, Nacua apologized for an antisemitic gesture during a livestream and faced a lawsuit from a Los Angeles woman who alleged he made an antisemitic comment and bit her shoulder. Nacua denies the allegations “in the strongest possible terms,” according to a statement shared with ABC.
