Rams' Puka Nacua shoots his shot at Sydney Sweeney after lingerie launch

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua publicly flirted with actress Sydney Sweeney after a Complex post shared a quote from her Cosmopolitan interview — Nacua, 24, replied on X, “Love skydiving.” In the Cosmopolitan interview Sweeney said she’s looking for a man who is “Athletic and outgoing and funny.” “I’m a sporty girl, so someone needs to be able to climb a mountain with me, go skydiving with me,” she added.

“And someone who loves their family. I love myself a man…” Fans on the platform noticed and chimed in under the post, with comments such as, “Pudney. Let’s make it happen,” “Let’s go Puka,” “Damn it. Now I have to fight Puka Nacua,” and “Shooting your shot! I respect that.” The exchange came as Sweeney launched her Syrn lingerie line earlier this week; she told Cosmopolitan the line isn’t “for guys” and that she’s “using it to empower other women.” Sweeney — who has most recently been linked to Scooter Braun — also told the magazine she was in a long private relationship for seven and a half years and kept it largely out of the public eye; that relationship, to Jonathan Davino, ended last year.

“I’m still figuring out love, and it’s hard to do that with millions of people who have their own opinions of what that looks like,” she said. According to the Sun, professional athletes have reportedly been “constantly” sliding into Sweeney’s DMs and Braun finds it “incredibly disrespectful”; the outlet said Sweeney allegedly ignores messages and blocks senders.
