Rams running back Cam Akers won’t play in Sunday’s game against the Panthers due to personal reasons, head coach Sean McVay said on Friday. Akers did not participate in practice on Thursday or Friday in preparation for Carolina. <\/p>\n

McVay said that the team is working through the situation but declined to speculate on Akers’ future with the team. <\/p>\n

“We’re dealing with things internally,” McVay said on the situation, via Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic<\/a>. “He is gonna be OK.” <\/p>\n

The 52nd overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, Akers ran for 151 yards and a touchdown during the season’s first five games. Akers returned for the playoffs last year after tearing his Achilles just before training camp. He started and played in 57% of the offensive snaps during the Rams’ win over the Bengals in Super Bowl LVI. <\/p>\n
