Puka Nacua did everything he could to make a play.
The ' superstar wide receiver got hurt at the end of it, though.
Matthew Stafford gunned a pass to the right corner of the end zone with Nacua going deep.
But there was risk of an interception. Ravens star Marlon Humphrey was inside of Nacua and had a chance to make a play on the ball.
Nacua leaped and flung himself back into Humphrey to whack the ball away and prevent the turnover.
The play was worth three points, because the Rams got a field goal instead of an interception.
But Nacua stayed down after the play.

The broadcast quickly went to commercial, so it wasn't immediately clear what happened to Nacua.
But if the Rams miss Nacua for any extended period of time, it'll be a huge blow to their offense.
Nacua has been on pace this season to set all sorts of WR records.
Without him, it'll be Davante Adams and a bunch of backups trying to catch passes from Matthew Stafford.
Rams fans and fantasy football managers with Nacua will be crossing their fingers. This isn't an injury any of them can afford to handle for long.
