While the extent to the workload Akers will have in the Rams’ backfield is unknown, the team will benefit from another weapon in the running game alongside Sony Michel. With Darrell Henderson on the injured reserve with an MCL injury, Michel has taken over lead back duties, seeing a 95% share of carries in a Week 17 20-19 win over the Baltimore Ravens, carrying the ball 19 times for 74 yards and one touchdown.
