Puka Nacua was perhaps the best story of the 2023 season thanks to his historic campaign with the L.A. Rams, but can his cousin make an impact in his first year with the Dallas Cowboys? And how soon until these family members face off as wide receiver vs. linebacker?
The Cowboys picked linebacker Marist Liafau out of Notre Dame with the 87th pick—just four spots after the Rams drafted running back Blake Corum without addressing a need at linebacker—and he is perhaps an injury away from competing to start for Dallas. That looks unlikely right now, but it looked unlikely for Puka entering a good receivers room as a fifth round pick.
