Puka Nacua was officially served with a lawsuit from his bite accuser right in the middle of his rehab stint, TMZ Sports has learned.
According to docs we obtained, three different process servers showed up at the L.A. Rams superstar's holistic care facility in Malibu earlier this month.
It seems as if the servers were tipped off on his whereabouts from news coverage ... as the attempts started just days after we reported Nacua was focused on "personal growth" amid treatment.
Puka Nacua is getting help this offseason -- the Los Angeles Rams superstar checked into rehab to focus on "personal growth" early last month ... weeks before a woman accused him of biting her during a New Year's Eve outing.
Levi McCathern, Nacua's attorney, tells TMZ Sports Puka's currently at a state-of-the-art holistic care facility in Malibu ... and he's using the time to get in tip-top shape personally and professionally ahead of the season.
McCathern said Nacua will be out in "plenty of time" to make it to Rams OTAs in May ... adding, "Puka is also deeply grateful for the support he has received from his family, friends, Coach [Sean] McVay, and his teammates."
It doesn't sound like Puka Nacua's employer is too concerned about his headline-filled offseason -- L.A. Rams head coach Sean McVay just told reporters he hopes the superstar is with the organization for years to come.
McVay met with the media at the NFL's annual league meeting in Arizona on Monday ... and was asked about the recent allegations made against the 24-year-old.
While his attorney, Levi McCathern, said the bite happened during a moment of horseplay, the Rams star adamantly denies saying "f*** all the Jews" at dinner that night.
Rams star PukaNacua is learning the hard way that life in the spotlight moves fast -- and two-time Super Bowl champ RickyProehl has some advice.
Proehl -- a 17-year NFL vet and current head coach of the UFL’s St. Louis Battlehawks -- tells TMZSports the biggest challenge for young stars today isn’t just what happens on Sundays … it’s everything that comes with the spotlight the rest of the week.
“Man, it’s a different era,” the former St. Louis Ram said. “With cell phones and everything, you say something, it gets caught, taken out of context … and it’s everywhere.”
The former wideout made it clear the concern isn’t football, because Nacua’s already proving he’s the real deal.
The woman accusing Puka Nacua of using an antisemitic statement and then biting her so hard he left teeth marks has voluntarily withdrawn her application for a temporary restraining order.
Joseph Kar -- the lawyer representing the alleged victim, Madison Atiabi -- announced the news Friday ... writing in a press release that his client dropped the TRO to focus solely on the civil lawsuit, which is still moving forward.
Kar also used the opportunity to bash Nacua's team for making what he called "inflammatory statements" to the press, which he said mischaracterized the facts of the case.
The woman who insists Puka Nacuamade an antisemitic comment and later bit her is suing the Rams superstar for assault and battery ... claiming she's suffered because of his reckless actions.
The attorney for Madison Atiabi, the alleged victim, filed the lawsuit Wednesday morning in Los Angeles, citing gender violence, assault and battery, and negligence.
Atiabi claims she's "suffered actual damages, including physical injury, pain and suffering, medical expenses, and severe emotional distress" after the December 31, 2025, incident in L.A.She doesn't go into detail about the nature of her injuries.
Puka Nacua is promising to fight back against the woman who accused him of saying 'f*** the Jews'during a New Year's Eve dinner ... a B.S. allegation, according to his lawyer, who tells TMZ Sports they're filing a defamation lawsuit.
"Puka denies these allegations in the strongest possible terms," Nacua's attorney Levi McCathern told us after the woman filed the TRO.
"We will be filing a defamation lawsuit and pursuing all available legal remedies in response to these false and damaging statements.”
We broke the story on Tuesday.
A woman in Los Angeles requested an order of protection from the 24-year-old NFL star after she claimed he made an antisemitic remark, and later bit her on December 31, 2025.
A woman in Los Angeles claims Puka Nacua made an antisemitic comment, and later bit her so hard he broke her skin ... allegations the Rams superstar says are total BS.
The alleged victim, in an application for a temporary restraining order, lays out what she claims happened on December 31, 2025, after a group outing in Century City.
The woman says the night got off to a rocky start after the 24-year-old allegedly said, "f*** all the Jews" during dinner, which distressed her.
Unfortunately, the woman says the remark was just the "first act in what became an escalating course of rude or vulgar, threatening, violent, and harassing conduct" by Nacua.
After eating, the woman says she and her friend, along with Puka and others, got into a Sprinter van when he became "touchy-feely."
The Kansas City Chiefs' decision to ship Trent McDuffie outta town sent shockwaves through the NFL world Wednesday morning ... and his former quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, is bummed out about the move -- posting a one-word response shortly after the news broke.
"Damn." That is all Mahomes had to say after the Chiefs agreed to send McDuffie to the Los Angeles Rams for a slew of draft picks -- including the 29th overall spot in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Puka Nacuaisn't having any problem stayin' busy this NFL offseason ... the Los Angeles Rams superstar was spotted at the L.A. Kings game Monday night in DTLA, sitting rinkside with 25-year-old influencer Megan Eugenio, better known online as Overtime Megan!
The duo sat just feet from the ice as the Kings took on the Avalanche at Crypto.com Arena, which Colorado won, 4-2.
Despite the hometown team losing, they had a great time, by the looks of it.

If Matthew Stafford ever gets honored with a statue, it shouldn't live outside SoFi Stadium ... so says former Rams star Todd Gurley... but the former NFL running back has a good explanation.
Gurley -- who played for the Rams from 2015 to 2019 -- broke it down to TMZ Sports at the Fanatics party during Super Bowl week ... and based on chatter he's heard, it'll take a LOT for anyone to get the honor at the state-of-the-art venue in Inglewood.
"Since they share the stadium with the Chargers, if they build a statue of anyone, or they like put them in the stadium, the Chargers have that same right to do that for their player as well. So I don't think they kinda wanna do that," Gurley said. "From my understanding."
Could Matt Stafford be the first athlete to get a statue outside SoFi Stadium?? TMZ Sports asked the man responsible for the decision!
We saw Los Angeles Rams owner Stan Kroenke leaving the Fanatics Luncheon in San Francisco on Friday, and asked him whether his star quarterback has "earned SoFi's first statue?"
The Rams' NFC title game loss hit hard for Davante Adams, who had to hold back tears as he talked to reporters after missing out on a Super Bowl appearance ... admitting it was crushing.
The Los Angeles receiver spoke with the media following the 31-27 defeat against the Seattle Seahawks at Lumen Field on Sunday ... and it was quite emotional for Adams, as it marked his fifth time losing in the NFC Championship Game.
"Heartbreak. It's tough to talk, honestly," Adams said.
Is Sunday's NFC Championship game between the Los Angeles Rams and the Seattle Seahawks the unofficial Super Bowl? Matt Hasselbeck believes so ... telling TMZ Sports that their showdown features the two best teams remaining in the NFL.
The former Seahawks quarterback chopped it up with Babcock ahead of Championship Sunday ... and in the convo, he made the bold proclamation about round three between these NFC West rivals.
"This, to me, in a way, is the Super Bowl," Hasselbeck said. "No offense to whoever represents in the AFC next week. Like I said, best offense vs. best defense."
Marshall Faulk has one request for the Rams and Bears game -- the referees need to CHILL.
Yes, that's what the Super Bowl champ said to TMZ Sports before his former team, the Rams, face the Bears in freezing Chicago on Sunday for the NFL Divisional Round matchup.
"Here's what I hope for," Faulk started.
"I hope that the referees stay their ass out of the game. We don't need to see referees on TV as much. They've been too visible in these games. They're throwing too many flags, I know they wanna be seen, but they need to stay out of the game."
