One of the things I am looking for out of LA Rams’ second-year running back Cam Akers is poise. A year ago, he arrived humble and hoped that he could contribute through the course of the 2020 NFL season. This year, he arrives with a bit of confidence, almost swagger, which is nice to hear from an offensive weapon.
That familiarity with the NFL is a huge step for the second-year running back. The offseason training is more about the process of preparing for an NFL season, and less about the cattle-shoot onboarding process for wide-eyed rookies.
