The Rams traded Cam Akers to the Vikings, and that's a pretty big story! What does it mean for Alexander Mattison, Kyren Williams, and the other running backs on those two teams? We'll talk it through. We'll also discuss your most asked-about flex questions and try and find some strategies to aid your Week 3 start/sit decisions, we'll preview the Giants/49ers Thursday night game, we'll play a hilarious listener mixtape and we'll preview Week 3 in DraftKings.

| 0:06.1 | It's the Harris Football Podcast, brought to you by Draft Kings, America's top-rated |
| 0:11.9 | Daily Fantasy app, with your host, Christopher Harris. |
| 0:16.8 | Welcome! |
| 0:19.4 | Hey, everybody, welcome in. My name is Chris, and this is... Welcome. Hey everybody. |
| 0:21.6 | Welcome in. |
| 0:22.8 | My name is Chris and this is a bunch of words. |
| 0:26.4 | Hello there, everybody. |
| 0:27.5 | Thank you for listening to this Thursday episode of The Little Podcast That Could. |
| 0:31.8 | I hope you're doing well out there. |
| 0:34.3 | We have an honest to goodness actual football trade to attend to. The Rams finally did the thing. |

| 1:24.7 | they're rebuilding off of last year's terrible title defense and |
