"Vikings Acquire Cam Akers, Boosting Run Game in Trade with Rams"
TL;DR Summary
The Los Angeles Rams have traded running back Cam Akers to the Minnesota Vikings in exchange for 2026 draft picks. Akers' tenure with the Rams was tumultuous, but he showed promise towards the end of the 2022 season. However, he struggled to secure a starting role in 2023 and was eventually a healthy scratch in Week 2. With the Vikings, Akers reunites with former Rams offensive coordinator Kevin O'Connell, but his role in the backfield is yet to be determined. This trade also impacts Alexander Mattison's fantasy value, as he may face competition from Akers. Fantasy managers are advised to hold onto Akers and see how his situation unfolds.
