Cam Akers seemed to be in the doghouse earlier this year when he started the year as the backup and then had a falling-out with the Rams, nearly leading to a trade or his release. But he and Sean McVay had a good conversation in November, which resulted in Akers remaining in Los Angeles.
It’s worked out great for the Rams, too. In the last six games, all of which he started, Akers has rushed for 445 yards (4.9 per carry) and scored six touchdowns. McVay loves what he’s seen from the third-year running back and is encouraged heading into the offseason.
