Cam Akers Will Break Your Fantasy League (and Help the Rams Too)

Rams rookie running back Cam Akers could be the next Taysom Hill.

"You never know, we might have a Wildcat package coming to a theater near you," coach Sean McVay told reporters last week after noting that Akers was one of the candidates for a role as an emergency quarterback.

"If he ever wants to use me for it, I'm ready," the second-round pick from Florida State said with a wide smile in response to McVay's remarks.

Akers was a high school quarterback. He threw eight passes in his college career and completed five, including this one, which McVay singled out before musing about the Wildcat.
