According to Tashan Reed of The Athletic, Los Angeles Rams RB Cam Akers was kicked out of practice after throwing punches at Las Vegas Raiders edge rusher Maxx Crosby, instigating a fight.
Fantasy Impact: The impetus of the scuffle came from a routine play where Crosby attempted to punch the ball out on a dead play, to which Akers presumably took offense. Akers is expected to be the Los Angeles Rams’ RB1 in 2023 despite his odd falling-out-of-favor drama from last season, where he played less than 40% of the snaps in seven games and was inactive for two. With RB Darrell Henderson out of the picture, Akers is expected to take back the lead. His ADP is half-PPR RB22, and his only competition for touches is Kyren Williams and Zach Evans.
