The latest bizarre story to emerge from the Los Angeles Rams star’s summer involves a spotless window at Michael Rubin’s "White Party" — and, by Nacua’s own admission, the window won.
During an appearance on Logan Paul’s "Impaulsive" podcast, Nacua revealed that he was left bleeding from the face after walking directly into a glass pane at the Fanatics founder’s annual celebrity bash in the Hamptons.

While speaking with Olympic gymnast Suni Lee, Nacua spotted Snoop Dogg and turned to find Rams teammate Davante Adams . He never saw the nearly invisible pane standing in his way.
"Uh, the glass window pane won," Nacua said. And Nacua apparently wasn’t the only victim of Rubin’s spotless glass.
"They made me feel better when they said three other people ran into it," Nacua said. "But nobody else ended up bleeding from it. So I don’t know if that made me feel much better or worse."
A run-in with Rubin’s glass is hardly the only headache Nacua has dealt with this offseason. The Rams star is facing a civil lawsuit stemming from a New Year’s Eve incident in which a woman alleges he bit her shoulder and made an antisemitic remark. Nacua’s attorney strongly denies the antisemitic allegation and characterized the biting as "horseplay." The lawsuit followed another controversy involving Nacua, who apologized in December after performing a gesture tied to antisemitic stereotypes during a livestream. He later spent time at a holistic care facility focused on personal growth.
Even his family made headlines.

Nacua’s brother, Samson, was arrested after mistakenly taking an SUV he believed belonged to Puka. Investigators determined it was a mix-up, and Samson was not charged.
Nacua’s offseason could still follow him onto the field, with the NFL reportedly reviewing his conduct and a suspension considered possible. Meanwhile, Nacua gave the Rams a more conventional scare this week when he left Tuesday’s joint practice with the Dallas Cowboys early with groin soreness. He sat out Thursday as Los Angeles took a cautious approach with its All-Pro receiver.
"We’re just being smart with him," Rams coach Sean McVay said. "Expecting to be back next week, ready to go."
The Rams have every reason to be cautious. Nacua is entering the final season of his rookie contract after leading the NFL with 129 receptions and finishing second with 1,715 receiving yards last season.
McVay and the Rams can manage his practice workload and game-plan for double teams. Billionaire-grade window cleaning is apparently another problem entirely.
