McCathern added that the headlines around his client, including a recently filed lawsuit alleging that Nacua made antisemitic comments and bit a woman named Madison Atiabi, were “a contributing factor” to the decision to enter rehab.
“He was in there a substantial period of time before any of these allegations broke with Madison,” McCathern said, “and he’s scheduled to be there for a while longer.”

McCathern added that Nacua is working to “improve his overall behavior in every aspect of his life that he can do it.”
“And I’m really proud of him doing it and doing it in this offseason,” he added.
What is Puka Nacua Accused of Doing?
As previously mentioned, Nacua allegedly bit Atiabi on New Year’s Eve, something McCathern has called “horseplay.”
And the alleged antisemitic comment is the second such incident for Nacua in recent months.
Last year, he apologized for doing an antisemitic gesture on Adin Ross’ livestream, saying he wasn’t aware of the gesture’s meaning.
Rams coach Sean McVay has stood up for Nacua, explaining that he “trust[s] this kid’s heart.”
“Love him, put your arm around him, want to continue to help him grow,” McVay told NBC Sports. “And, really, get all the appropriate facts before I rush to judgment on that particular situation. But I will say, knowing this guy for three years, is I do trust his heart. I trust the human being. And I want to be able to put my arm around him.”
