Impact While the majority of rookie seventh-round picks have been desperately clawing for third-string spots, Funk has spent his summer competing with Xavier Jones for No. 2 standing on the Los Angeles depth chart, behind presumed starter Darrell Henderson after Cam Akers suffered an Achilles tear in July. The addition of Michel makes things a bit more crowded, but Funk still is in good shape relative to other late-round picks, with the running-back position arguably the biggest question mark for an otherwise-stellar team. Granted, Funk could end up on the practice squad if the Rams only keep three backs.
