Vikings Re-Acquire Cam Akers from Texans Amid Aaron Jones' Injury
Oct 15, 2024, 10:36 PM
The Minnesota Vikings have acquired running back Cam Akers from the Houston Texans in a swap of 2026 conditional late-round picks, with the Vikings receiving a 2026 conditional seventh-round pick and sending a 2026 conditional sixth-round pick to Houston. This marks the second time the Vikings have traded for Akers, who was previously dealt to Minnesota from the Los Angeles Rams before moving to Houston. Akers has proven to be healthy and dynamic during his time with the Texans but became expendable with Joe Mixon back on the field. His familiarity with the Vikings' system, under head coach Kevin O'Connell and offensive coordinator Wes Phillips, adds valuable depth to Minnesota's backfield, especially as running back Aaron Jones works his way back from a hip injury. The Vikings, who needed three running backs last season, continue that approach this year.
