Los Angeles Rams star Puka Nacua is known for his plays on the field, but the All-Pro receiver’s latest play came off the field.

Sydney Sweeney opened up about what her type would be in a man in a recent interview with Cosmopolitan and Nacua took to social media to let the mega star know that he definitely fits the description.

“Athletic, outgoing and funny. I’m an athletic girl, so someone needs to be able to climb a mountain with me, go skydiving with me. And someone who loves their family,” Sweeney said.

Nacua saw Sweeney’s comments on social media and retweeted them with a simple message.

“I love skydiving,” Nacua posted on X.

The 24-year-old is fresh off the Rams’ loss to the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Championship Game. However, Nacua shined in the loss, catching nine passes for 165 yards and a touchdown.

Nacua, who was drafted in the fifth round by BYU in the 2023 NFL Draft, has become one of the best wide receivers in the NFL. In 16 games, Nacua has caught 129 passes for 1,715 yards and 10 touchdowns. He led the NFL with 129 receptions and 80 first downs.

Nacua and Hallie Aiono were in a long-term relationship before a very public breakup. Aiono later became pregnant and underwent a paternity test to determine whether Nacua was the father of her son, Kingston.

She filed court papers in June to determine the parental relationship, after tests confirmed Nacua was the father.

Sweeney and her ex-fiance Jonathan Davino called off their engagement in March 2025. She has been seen with Scooter Braun since the breakup.
