The Rams finished the drive with a touchdown by running back Kyren Williams from seven yards out. Los Angeles briefly took the lead, but the Panthers responded on their next drive and regained the lead.

Stafford had two touchdown passes to Davante Adams in that time. However, his streak of 28 consecutive touchdown passes without throwing an interception came to an abrupt halt. He was intercepted twice in the game over three and a half quarters, including a Pick Six by Jackson.

Nacua finished with six receptions for 72 yards.

Carolina won the game, 31-28.

Nacua came into the game leading the NFL in targets with 98. He had 80 receptions for 947 yards while looking to receive 1,000 receiving yards for the second time in his career.
