Cam Akers and Eric Weddle both made remarkable returns in the last few weeks, going on to contribute in the Rams’ 34-11 win over the Cardinals in Monday’s wild-card game. Akers came back from a torn Achilles in less than six months, while Weddle came out of retirement after two years away from the game.
Both players were on the field for a good portion of the Rams’ win against Arizona, particularly in Akers’ case. Looking at the snap counts, it’s easy to see that he’s emerged as the No. 1 running back in Los Angeles and may not let go of that role for years.
Here’s a breakdown of who played how much in Monday’s win.
