A Los Angeles woman is levying concerning allegations against Puka Nacua. The woman claimed Nacua made an antisemitic comment during a night out and proceeded to bite her twice, leaving a teeth imprint and making her scream in pain, according to TMZ.
This isn’t the first time Nacua has been accused of antisemitism. During this past NFL season, the Los Angeles Rams star came under fire after making an antisemitic gesture during a livestream with controversial streamers Adin Ross and Mikyle Rafiq. Nacua apologized after the incident and insisted, “I do not stand for any form of racism, bigotry or hate of another group of people.”
Let’s get into what we know about the latest allegations.
Who is Puka Nacua?
One of the NFL’s most productive receivers. A former fifth-round pick out of BYU, Nacua has grown into Matthew Stafford’s most trusted target, as evidenced by his 129 catches, 1,715 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2025.
What did Nacua allegedly say?
The woman claims Nacua said “(expletive) all the Jews,” according to TMZ, during a dinner with friends in Century City, California.
Did the woman contact police?
The woman says she notified police the following day and filed an incident report. She’s now filing for a temporary restringing order.
How has Nacua responded?
Nacua’s team is vehemently denying the allegations. His attorney, Levi McCathern, accused the woman of trying to shake Nacua down for millions, per TMZ. McCathern admits Nacua bit the woman as a form of “horseplay,” and insists the receiver did not make the antisemitic comment.
What’s next?
A hearing is slated for April 14.
