Unlikely to suit up Week 8 Coach Sean McVay said Monday that Akers (personal) is not likely to be active for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports. Impact McVay also said that the Rams have spoken to teams about the third-year running back with the NFL trade deadline one week away. The coach wouldn't rule out keeping Akers in Los Angeles, saying it's "definitely still an option," but DaSilva notes that it seems highly likely the two sides eventually part ways. There may not be much of a market for Akers, however. The Jaguars traded James Robinson to the Jets on Monday, only receiving a conditional sixth-round pick in exchange.
