A new photo of Los Angeles Rams star wide receiver Puka Nacua’s alleged bite mark on a woman has been released by her attorney.
Madison Attiabi’s attorney, Joseph Kar, shared the photo with the California Post on Tuesday. This time, the image is in color, providing a clearer sense of the alleged bite’s severity. It depicts a circular imprint of several teeth on Atiabi’s back. You can see the photo here.
Additionally, Kar said that his client had to receive a tetanus shot after getting allegedly bitten by the two-time Pro Bowler.
“I don’t know if you know,” Kar said, “but the mouth is one of the dirtiest places on the planet given the amount of bacteria we have as humans.
“My client has also suffered severe emotional distress and mental anguish and is being treated.”
Attiabi filed a lawsuit against Nacua in January, following the bite that took place on New Year’s Eve.
Nacua’s attorney, Levi McCathern, has since emphatically denied the allegations, insisting that what happened between Nacua and Attiabi was the result of mere “horseplay”.
Nacua checked into rehab in March, but McCathern said it was not related to the lawsuit.
It remains to be seen whether the Rams will take any action regarding the ongoing situation involving Nacua, though Los Angeles head coach Sean McVay has already voiced his support for the wide receiver while he was in rehab.
