SAN FRANCISCO – Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua finished third in the 2025 Associated Press Offensive Player of the Year award voting at NFL Honors.
Nacua received 170 points and eight first-place votes, while Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba won the award with 272 points and 14 first-place votes. 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey finished second with 223 points and 12 first-place votes, Falcons running back Bijan Robinson finished fourth with 168 points and six first-place votes and Patriots quarterback Drake Maye finished fifth with 58 points and five first-place votes.
"It's super exciting," Nacua said of being a finalist for the award. "I feel blessed."
Nacua led the league with 129 receptions, finished second in receiving yards with 1,715 passing yards and scored 11 total touchdowns. He set a Pro Football Focus record with 27 contested catches and finished first among receivers in yards after catch (729), according to Next Gen Stats.
But even after posting one of the NFL's best statistical seasons for a skill position player, Nacua said he was most proud of his contributions as a blocker, something he's always taken pride in.
