May not return to L.A. after all Akers (personal) is "hoping for a fair resolution" to his tenure with the Rams and prefers not to suit up for the team again in 2022 after he wasn't traded ahead of Tuesday's deadl...

Impact Though Akers is due a manageable $1.45 million for the final year of his rookie deal in 2023, the third-year back's middling production since he returned from a torn Achilles' tendon in Week 18 of last season likely limited the interest of potential suitors ahead of the deadline. While Anderson relays that Akers' relationship with the Rams remains amicable since he stepped away from the team during Week 6 prep, the 23-year-old apparently believes he's best served moving on from the organization entirely rather than rejoining the team in a backup capacity. It's unclear if the Rams will concede to Akers' wishes, but if Akers is released, L.A. would proceed with Darrell Henderson, Ronnie Rivers, Malcolm Brown and Kyren Williams (ankle) as its options out of the backfield.

Could play for L.A. again Akers (personal), who is out for Sunday's game against San Francisco, would be expected to play for the Rams again this season if he isn't dealt prior to Tuesday's trade deadline,...

Impact Los Angeles would prefer to find a trade partner for Akers, Schefter reports, but if that doesn't materialize the team would expect the 2020 second-round pick to contribute this season. Akers, who didn't practice with the team this week and is set to miss a second straight contest for personal reason, may have to get back in the good graces of the Rams' coaching staff if he isn't traded, though both sides still appear to prefer that route. Darrell Henderson, Malcolm Brown and Ronnie Rivers will helm Los Angeles' backfield versus the 49ers on Sunday.

Not playing this week Akers (personal) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against San Francisco, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

Impact It's a formality after Sean McVay said earlier this week that Akers wouldn't practice with the team. The 2020 second-round pick could be traded in the coming days, as he doesn't seem to be on good terms with the Rams. Darrell Henderson (illness) and Malcolm Brown are the running backs on the active roster, with Kyren Williams (knee) potentially coming back from injured reserve as soon as Week 9.

Not practicing with team Akers (personal) won't practice with the Rams this week, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Akers' continued absence from the team all but rules him out for Sunday's game against the 49ers, an outcome Sean McVay hinted at earlier in the week. Darrell Henderson is expected to work as the Rams' lead back, with Malcolm Brown in reserve and Kyren Williams (ankle) nearing a return from injured reserve. Akers, meanwhile, remains a candidate to be traded.

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.
