One of the most impressive rookies in the NFL this season has been wide receiver Puka Nacua. Nacua started the season at a historic pace, but seemingly continues to break records every week.
Now that we are officially at the halfway mark of the season, analysts in the media handed out their midseason awards. While Nacua is still in the Offensive Rookie of the Year conversion, he has seemingly been overtaken in the media by CJ Stroud. A perfect example of this is Bill Barnwell of ESPN who selected Stroud as his midseason Offensive Rookie of the Year after taking Nacua at the quarter-season mark.
