With the 2023 NFL season on its way, the Los Angeles Rams want to have a remarkable campaign just like two years ago. With two games played, now the NFC West team has made an intriguing roster move with Cam Akers that has surprised everybody.

In 2021, the Rams front office decided to bring Matthew Stafford to be the leader of a highly talented offense. Unfortunately, the quarterback lost Cam Akers due to an Achilles injury, so they had to use Sony Michel and Darell Henderson as running backs.
