LA RAMS star Puka Nacua breaks down in tears before every NFL game for an emotional reason.
The wide receiver, 23, was a round five pick in the 2023 draft.

And he is now living the dream after securing a move to the Rams following an impressive college career at Washington and Brigham Young University.
Nacua has already clocked up 20 appearances for his NFL team.
He played a big role in Sunday’s 26-20 win over the Seattle Seahawks.
But before the game started, Nacau could be seen in floods of tears.
Indeed, the emotional scenes occur for the ace before every single game he plays in.
And that’s because Nacau is paying tribute to his father Lionel, who died from complications of diabetes when the star was just 11 years old.
It was Lionel’s dream that Nacau became a superstar in the NFL.
And now that wish has been fulfilled, his son sheds a tear before every match.
Fans reacted to the heartwarming revelation on social media.
One said: “I love this kid.”
Another declared: “This dude puts 100 per cent into every play is a complete beast.”
One noted: “Much respect for you Puka.”
Another added: “I know his father proud watching from above.”
