Cam Akers - Page 38 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Not in line to practice Thursday Akers (ribs) isn't slated to practice Thursday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

Impact Akers emerged from the Rams' Week 2 win at Philadelphia with separated rib cartilage, which is threatening to hold him out of the first two sessions of this week. Coach Sean McVay even told Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com on Thursday that Akers "isn't coming along as quickly as anticipated" in his recovery. Akers still has chances to step on the practice field before week's end, but if he's absent or limited Sunday in Buffalo, the Rams will turn to some combination of Malcolm Brown (finger) and Darrell Henderson out of the backfield.

Won't practice Wednesday Akers (ribs) will be held out of practice Wednesday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

Impact After Sunday's win against the Jets, the Rams revealed Akers separated some rib cartilage, which didn't allow him to get on the field after taking the Rams' first three carries of the game. He's considered day-to-day, while veteran Malcolm Brown also won't practice Wednesday due to a broken left pinky finger. At the moment, Darrell Henderson is the healthiest of the Rams' trio of running backs.

Considered day-to-day Akers separated some rib cartilage in Sunday's win over the Eagles and is considered day-to-day, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Akers exited Sunday's game after accumulating 13 yards on just three carries. Fortunately, it appears like he avoided a serious issue, and his status for the team's upcoming matchup with the Bills figures to become more clear as the week progresses. Fellow running back Malcolm Brown (finger), who also was forced out of Sunday's victory, is expected to be available.

Not returning Sunday Akers (ribs) has been ruled out of Sunday's game in Philadelphia, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Akers took the first three carries for the Rams before heading to the sidelines, accumulating 13 yards on the ground. With the rookie second-rounder unable to return, Malcolm Brown will have more opportunity for early down and short-yardage reps, while Darrell Henderson takes on more of the pass-catching burden out of the team's backfield.

Impact Akers played 24 of the Rams' 73 offensive snaps Week 1 against the Cowboys, turning 14 carries into 39 yards and his sole target into a four-yard catch. The 2020 second-round pick opened his second career game with three rushes for 13 yards before heading to the sideline on the team's first possession. With Akers questionable to return, L.A.'s backfield has been whittled down to Malcolm Brown and Darrell Henderson.

Rams' new defense gets off to strong start in beating Dallas

The Los Angeles Rams saw some encouraging early returns from Sean McVay’s offseason decision to make systemic changes to what was already a pretty good defense

SEPTEMBER 14, 2020 • Associated Press

Held in check in debut Akers rushed 14 times for 39 yards and had a four-yard reception during Sunday's 20-17 win over Dallas. He played 24 of 73 offensive snaps.

Impact While the rookie started for the Rams, he never got it going against Dallas and quickly played second fiddle to veteran Malcolm Brown. Brown was the superior back Sunday and finished with 110 yards from scrimmage and scored both of Los Angeles' touchdowns. In fact, it's a bit discouraging that Akers struggled while Brown made it look relatively easy against a mediocre Cowboys' defense. However, don't forget, Brown also scored two touchdowns in Week 1 last year and then was hardly a fantasy factor thereafter. Looking ahead to a Week 2 matchup against Philadelphia, Akers should probably be viewed as a risky start in most settings -- especially since fellow running back Darrell Henderson will likely be more involved in the game plan after missing a lot of time during training camp and playing only five snaps Sunday.
