Los Angeles Rams receiver Puka Nacua issued a public apology after performing an antisemitic gesture during a livestream hosted by internet personality Adin Ross. Nacua stated he was unaware of the gesture's offensive meaning and expressed regret for his actions, emphasizing his opposition to racism and hate. The incident drew criticism from a California congressman and condemnation from the National Football League, both highlighting the importance of combating antisemitism. Despite the controversy, Nacua delivered a career-best performance in the Rams' overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks, and his coach Sean McVay voiced support for Nacua's growth and learning.
