Former Rams 2nd round pick lands new job

The New Orleans Saints signed Cam Akers, a former second round pick of the Los Angeles Rams. The running back who was meant to do the job that Darrell Henderson couldn’t do and helped the Rams win the Super Bowl in 2021 had most recently played for the Minnesota Vikings.

In his last two games, Akers had just over 100 rushing yards on only 32 combined snaps.

We will never know how Akers career could have gone if he had not torn his Achilles.
