Rams running back Cam Akers, who will miss Sunday’s game against the Panthers due to personal reasons, may have played his last snap with the team.
Akers may be traded ahead of the Nov. 1 deadline due to philosophical and football-related differences with coach Sean McVay, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. The third-year pro is expected to draw significant interest from teams around the league, and Los Angeles is believed to be open to a deal for the right price.
Earlier this week, McVay surprisingly ruled Akers out for the Rams’ Week 6 contest but did not disclose exactly why the 23-year-old would not be available. McVay said Akers was “working through some things” after the running back did not practice Thursday due to a personal issue.
