Former Vikings RB Cam Akers Tries Out For Saints Minicamp
The New Orleans Saints are actively seeking to bolster their roster during minicamp tryouts, focusing on both offensive linemen and running backs. They are hosting offensive tackle Barry Wesley, a 6-foot-7 player with extensive college and spring league experience, who has had brief stints with the Falcons and Birmingham Stallions. Additionally, the Saints are giving former Minnesota Vikings running back Cam Akers a tryout; Akers has shown resilience throughout his NFL career, playing for multiple teams including the Rams, Vikings, and Texans, and accumulating over 2,000 rushing yards and multiple touchdowns. Despite a crowded backfield led by Alvin Kamara, Akers has potential value as a versatile running back, especially given Kamara's history of missing time. While Akers faces stiff competition from other backs like Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Kendre Miller, and Devin Neal, his past performances suggest he could be a worthwhile addition if he impresses in minicamp. The Saints' efforts reflect a strategic approach to enhancing depth and firepower on offense heading into the 2025 season.
