Though the Minnesota Vikings agreed to a trade with the Los Angeles Rams for running back Cam Akers, team personnel insisted Thursday that they were still standing by starter Alexander Mattison. Instead of a replacement, the Vikings reportedly intend to use Akers as a complement to Mattison, giving both struggling runners a shared workload. “But we haven’t lost confidence in Alex Mattison,” Vikings offensive coordinator Wes Phillips told reporters Thursday. “I will say that. Unfortunately we’ve had a couple turnovers in the run game where we obviously need to clean that up. Everyone’s aware of...

The Los Angeles Rams traded running back Cam Akers to the Minnesota Vikings Wednesday for a swap of sixth-round draft picks in 2026. Akers began the season with the starting job for Los Angeles but was a healthy scratch in Week 2 as the team quickly turned to backup Kyren Williams. After ruling Akers inactive ahead of Week 2, head coach Sean McVay said earlier in the week that the team was looking for interested trade partners for the former second-round pick out of Florida State. The Vikings, struggling with their own underperforming run game, agreed to terms quickly. “I think he did a lot of...

The Los Angeles Rams are already in the playoffs but will be looking to clinch the NFC West title for the third time in five years with a win against the San Francisco 49ers at home in Week 18. To do so they’ll have an old friend returning in the backfield: running back Cam Akers is expected to play on Sunday for the first time since tearing his Achilles in July. “I think you let him go. You know, he did a great job these last couple weeks,” head coach Sean McVay said, though he wouldn’t divulge his workload. “To say that he’s not ready, I don’t know that it’d be accurate. I think that he’s re...

Akers suffered the injury during a workout; he underwent testing to confirm suspicions of the tear. The Rams publicly announced his injury but did not provide information on a timetable for his return. Akers was a critical cog in the backfield for the Rams during his rookie campaign.

Last season, the Los Angeles Rams surprised many by making it to the divisional round of the playoffs. Quarterback Jared Goff led the team to a Wild Card playoff win, but the team fell to the Green Bay Packers in the divisional round. Despite the disappointing end of the season, it was still a successful one for the team. Unfortunately, due to inconsistent performances by Goff, the Rams traded him to the Detroit Lions for quarterback Matthew Stafford. Los Angeles sent Goff, a 2021 third-round pick, a 2022 and 2023 first-round pick to the Lions for Stafford. Not only that, but the team will be ...

Thursday Night Football saw the Los Angeles Rams face the visiting New England Patriots. It was an important match for the Rams as they needed the win to become first in the NFC West division. The Rams were able to blowout the Patriots by a score of 24-3. One of the major catalysts to the Rams offense was rookie running back Cam Akers.

That performance became the most for an NFL rookie this season. By the ...
