Rams WR Puka Nacua apologizes for antisemitic dance

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua on Dec. 18 issued an apology for using an antisemitic trope during a Dec. 16 livestream appearance.

“When I appeared the other day on a social media livestream, it was suggested to me to perform a specific movement as part of my next touchdown celebration. At the time, I had no idea this act was antisemitic in nature and perpetuated harmful stereotypes against Jewish people.

“I deeply apologize to anyone who was offended by my actions as I do not stand for any form of racism, bigotry or hate of another group of people.”
