He'll have to Alex Len Jersey wait another year for that opportunity.Akers was lost for the season when he tore his Achilles last week, a huge blow to the Rams rushing attack. The Rams were banking on Akers to pace the running game and become a viable receiving option out of the backfield in his second year. Now, Los Angeles is scrambling to replace his production as training camp opens."I have a lot of belief and a lot of trust in the guys that we have in that locker room and on the coaching staff to no matter who's back there, we're going Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Jersey to have a succe sful running game," Stafford said to reporters at Rams training camp Sunday. "Really the biggest gut punch was for the kid. I think it's so difficult. I dealt with injuries my first couple of years. Really throughout your career, you end up doing it here in the NFL.

"Really tough to see that happen to a young guy that's a really promising, talented player. Unfortunately, that's kind of the name of the game in the NFL," Stafford said. "You hate to see it happen in the offseason when we're playing a game or something, but it's next man up. Those guys are going to battle it out and I'm sure we'll do whatever we can to make the running Jalen Harris Jersey game as good as we po sibly can...Next man up, we'll go from there."
