Rams Week 18 snap counts: Cam Akers plays 13 snaps in return, Van Jefferson still WR3

The Los Angeles Rams had no players who were inactive on Sunday due to injury, giving Sean McVay almost a full complement of players to use against the San Francisco 49ers. He still leaned heavily on his starters, but the Rams did mix things up a bit with heavy packages on offense and more defensive packages with two inside linebackers on the field.

Additionally, injuries caused a shakeup at safety toward the end of the game, thrusting Terrell Burgess and Nick Scott into bigger roles.

The snap counts also show how much Cam Akers played in his return from an Achilles tear and once again proved that Van Jefferson is the No. 3 receiver after seeing a limited role last week.
