Was it a Christmas miracle? A nod to a young man’s willingness to work relentlessly and overcome pain? Or was it simply a case of modern medicine and physical therapy applied to a highly-tuned human body?
Whatever narrative you consider to be correct, the facts that remain are that the Los Angeles Rams:
- Designated Cam Akers for return from the Non-football Injury List on December 23, 2021.
- Two days later, on Christmas Day, the Rams activated Akers to the official roster.
- On January 5, 2022, LA head coach Sean McVay announced that Akers would see action this Sunday in the season finale versus the San Francisco 49ers.
