Trade News: Rams send running back Cam Akers to Vikings

The Los Angeles Rams have finally seen enough of Cam Akers and have sent him to the NFC North.

Akers has been traded to the Minnesota Vikings for what can best be described as extremely low compensation.

Comp update: Rams are trading running back Cam Akers and a conditional 2026 seventh-round pick to the Minnesota Vikings in exchange for a conditional 2026 sixth-round pick.

Minnesota has had virtually no running game through two weeks and their backfield prior to this trade consisted of Alexander Mattison, Ty Chandler, and former Washington Huskies star Myles Gaskin.
