Running back, who hasn’t practiced since Oct. 12 after being sent home for ‘in-house’ reasons, has plenty to prove, defensive coordinator Raheem Morris says
THOUSAND OAKS — Running back Cam Akers received a second chance from the Rams, but he has plenty to prove, according to his coaches.
Akers returned to practice Thursday, three weeks after being sent home for “in-house” reasons that Rams coach Sean McVay has kept private. McVay wasn’t scheduled to speak to reporters Thursday, but defensive coordinator Raheem Morris provided some details into why Akers hadn’t practiced since Oct. 12.
“We had a disagreement,” Morris said. “Cam and our system, right? He stepped away from the building a little bit and now you gotta invite him back into the fold. Sometimes you gotta get away from tough situations to go through some adversities to have that ability to come back and shine. Those two will mend out their differences.
“We drafted Cam for a reason. We believe in him. He can run the football, he can make people miss and he’s gotta get back to doing that and he’s gotta prove it again to his teammates and he’s gotta prove it again to his coaches.”
