Akeem Ayers NFL Draft Bio
Akeem Christopher Ayers (born July 10, 1989) is an American football linebacker for the Tennessee Titans of the National Football League. He played for UCLA in college. At the end of the 2010 season, his junior year, he declared for the NFL draft.
Ayers is known for his athletic interceptions for touchdowns, one in the 2009 season against Oregon and one against Temple in the 2009 EagleBank Bowl. The latter was the game-winning score of the bowl game and helped him earn him MVP honors. In a post-game interview, he admitted that he slipped, and was just trying to rush the passer on his game-changing play. As he got up, he saw the quarterback looking to pass, jumped up, and pulled in the pass for an interception and score.
On September 18, 2010, Ayers had a key interception against #23 Houston in UCLA's first win against a ranked opponent since 2008. The following week on on September 25, he played a key role in the Bruins' second upset against a ranked opponent in a victory over No. 7 ranked Texas Longhorns 34–12 in front of more 101,000 fans in Austin, Texas. Ayers had a key interception, seven tackles, a forced fumble and a sack. He was named Lott IMPACT Player of the Week on September 27.
