Team rules apply to everyone — even the superstars.
Los Angeles Rams receiver Puka Nacua got into it with teammates after they caught him live streaming in the locker room, following their dominant Week 14 road win against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday afternoon.

Nacua, fresh off a spectacular performance, whipped out his phone and went live on Instagram — which is strictly prohibited by the Rams.
A teammate, whose identity remains unclear, confronted the 24-year-old Pro Bowler, engaging in a verbal back-and-forth with Nacua after he refused to cut the stream.
Yikes: Rams WR Puka Nacua got caught live-streaming in the locker room despite the team having a strict rule against players doing so.
One of his teammates even asked him to stop while he was changing, but he ignored the request and kept filming.
What an awful look for Puka 🤦♂️ pic.twitter.com/afexSGIFGa

“Hey bro, don’t live stream,” said his teammate. “Bro! Don’t live-stream in the locker room.”
Responded Nacua, acting clueless: “What? I’m not.”
“What do you mean you’re not?” said the teammate. “I’m looking at it.”
Nacua shifted his stance.
“I know,” he said. “But it’s not of everybody. Nobody’s in here yet, cuzzo. Ain’t nobody’s butt cheeks are on camera, man. Chill out, bruh.”
“It doesn’t matter!” the teammate yelled as Nacua walked away.
The exchange, to some fans, painted the picture of an entitled superstar who believed he was above team protocol.

“I like the way he plays football,” a fan wrote on social media, responding to the viral clip. “But the more I see of his personality, the more I think of him as an immature little weirdo.”
Perhaps he was swept up by a burst of self-assurance after a spectacular showing in which he corralled seven receptions for 167 yards, two touchdowns, and a PFF score of 97.4 — the highest graded game by a wide receiver in the site’s history.
Regardless, the Rams (10–3) will hope to push past the icy exchange as they near the final lap of a heated division race, currently tied with the Seattle Seahawks atop the NFC West with four games to go.
Before the division rivals square off in Seattle in Week 16, the Rams will host the Detroit Lions in LA on Dec. 14.
