Los Angeles Rams wideout Puka Nacua left Sunday's 17-3 road victory against the Baltimore Ravens in the second quarter because of a left lower leg injury before returning in the second half in a limited capacity.

The Rams (4-2) originally said Nacua was questionable to return against the Ravens (1-5). Coach Sean McVay said afterward that Nacua has an ankle injury and doesn't know if he will be ready for the team's game next Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London.

Los Angeles running back Blake Corum also left the game at the same time with an apparent right ankle injury and was ruled questionable to return, only to return to the field later.

Nacua was injured while trying to make a catch in the end zone. He held his lower left leg in pain. After a visit from trainers, he was helped back to the locker room before returning to the sideline.

He finished with two catches on three targets for 28 yards. Nacua entered Sunday's game leading the NFL in receptions (52), receiving yards (588) and receiving first downs (31).

Corum, in his second season with the Rams, had four carries for 14 yards before departing and added a third-quarter run of 9 yards for 23 total.
