Commanders LB K'Lavon Chaisson has colorful way to explain Puka Nacua's dominance

The Washington Commanders lost to the Los Angeles Rams 20-13 on Sunday, despite leading the majority of the first half. While Washington’s offensive issues ultimately held them back, one defensive failure proved too much to overcome.

Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua caught 14 passes for 150 yards and a touchdown. He also carried the ball twice for 20 yards. Nacua didn’t beat Washington deep, but instead, head coach Sean McVay used Nacua as sort of an extension to the running game. The Commanders could never adjust to Nacua, and it cost them in the end, despite an otherwise strong defensive effort.

Afterward, Washington outside linebacker K’Lavon Chaisson didn’t hold back when discussing why the Commanders lost.

“They ran the same play all day, feeding the same person the same ball all day. So, as a defense, you just gotta drop your nuts and figure out how you’re going to stop that. You know what I’m saying? If you’re not going to let it happen anymore. Regardless of the individual results, when you have a game plan that easy, and they’re not hiding what they’re doing and running duo all day, they will find a way to get Puka the ball. That’s what you have to hone in on, and find the ways to stop that and get your defense off the field and limit the points.”

Drop your nuts. Chaisson has his own way of telling it like it is.

Some Rams fans — yes, there are some out there — took Chaisson’s comment as an insult to the Rams. He was praising them, while saying Washington’s defense knew what was coming and didn’t stop it.
