Receiver Puka Nacua and cornerback Trent McDuffie remain uncertain to play against the Raiders, Rams head coach Sean McVay told reporters. Both will be designated questionable, while a concussion will keep linebacker Nate Landman out of the game.

McVay said Nacua and McDuffie would miss the team's last practice before the matchup. Nacua hurt his calf in practice, with McVay describing the injury as minor. McDuffie is dealing with a groin injury.

The Rams will elevate veteran linebacker Eric Kendricks from their practice squad to play against the Raiders in Landman's absence.

Nacua's four appearances this season have produced 37 catches for 417 yards and a touchdown. McDuffie has recorded an interception along with seven passes defensed.
