Cam Akers

Cam Akers rushed six times for 18 yards while adding two receptions for 15 yards and a touchdown in the Vikings’ Week 17 win over the Packers.

Akers took a swing pass from Sam Darnold in for a score. The 25-year-old saw a good number of reps in the second half as Aaron Jones appeared to be hobbled, but Minnesota was throwing too much against an ineffective Green Bay secondary for it to matter much. Akers could see the bulk of the playing time in Week 18 against the Lions if Jones isn’t able to play.
