And fkkk tht ima air Cam out ! We were in negotiations for it and he just stoppped responding to me! Yeaaaa Im puttin John Carlson Jersey him on blast cause he didnt wanna text back Odell Beckham Jr (@obj) Akers, who wore No. 23 in each of his first two NFL seasons, had hoped to make the switch in jersey numbers last season, as Rams Wire's Cameron DaSilva . The number is deeply significant to Akers he played with that number since childhood. In times of stre s and heartbreak, he always had his favorite No. 3.That number holds a lot of value to me because I played in that number when I was in my roughest times in life, . I feel like Im at my strongest not literally at my strongest, but thats how I feel.Akers apparently was so far down the line of changing his jersey number last year that the Rams began Alex Ovechkin Jersey offering Akers No. 3 jerseys online, per DaSilva. The former Florida State tailback had even gone as far as starting to wear the number on his practice jersey.However, Akers sported No. 23 during the 2021. The reason, as ESPN's Adam Schefter points out, had more to do with finances than anything else. The NFL planned on charging Akers $500,000, a hefty fee for something as trivial as a number.Last year, Cam Akers planned to switch to No. 3, but NFL wanted to charge him $500,000, so he waited until this season to make the switch, for free. When OBJ signed, the Rams and NFL arranged for him to wear No. 3, but all sides agreed he would have a different number in 2022. Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) Akers played the waiting game. It worked out perfectly for the Rams, who signed Beckham after his me sy divorce from the Browns. Beckham impre sed in the Rams' gold-and-white, making 27 catches for 305 yards and five touchdowns in eight games in L.A. He even T.J. Oshie Jersey added an acrobatic touchdown grab in the Rams' 23-20 Super Bowl victory over the Bengals.Still, the organization agreed to let Akers wear No. 3 in 2022. He won't have to pay a dime to wear the number now, according to Schefter.Meanwhile, Beckham's status with the Rams is still up in the air. He suffered a torn ACL in Los Angeles' Super Bowl win, one that is poised to keep him out Jaromir Jagr Jersey for months.If he does return to the Rams, Beckham would likely have to look for a number he hasn't worn since bursting onto the stage at LSU. Beckham has worn No. 13 throughout his NFL career, and sported No. 33 in his early college days. However, both of those numbers are taken.
