Super Bowl 2026: Ernest Jones claps back at Puka Nacua over Sam Darnold post after winning title with Seahawks

Puka Nacua couldn't help himself on Sunday night.

But, in the midst of celebrating their Super Bowl win over the New England Patriots, Ernest Jones immediately shut him down in a way that only he could.

Jones, after seeing a social media post by the Los Angeles Rams wide receiver made appearing to make fun of Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold, clapped back perfectly.

Ain't you at home. Goofy ass https://t.co/1CFlOFvc9J

"Ain't you at home?" Jones wrote. "Goofy a**."

Nacua, as the Los Angeles Rams fell to the Seahawks in the NFC championship game, was in fact watching Super Bowl LX from somewhere other than the field at Levi's Stadium on Sunday night. So any criticism he may have of Darnold, at least in the eyes of Jones, is irrelevant. Darnold led the Seahawks to their first Super Bowl title in well over a decade.

Darnold went 19-of-38 for 202 yards with a touchdown in the team's 29-13 win over the Patriots. Darnold found AJ Barner for a 16-yard score early in the fourth quarter for the game's first touchdown, which put them up 19-0 at the time.

It was Darnold's best season to date, too. The former No. 3 overall pick signed a three-year, $100.5 million deal with the Seahawks this past summer - which marked his fifth stop in eight seasons in the league. He's now the first starting quarterback to win a Super Bowl in history after playing with that many teams.

While Nacua is coming off a great season of his own - he had a career-high 1,715 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns on a league-high 129 catches while averaging an NFL-best 107.2 yards per game -he does not yet have a Super Bowl ring to his name. Both Darnold and Jones have him beat there.
