Week 10 at New York Jets
Todd Gurley rushed just 12 times for 48 yards in the Rams’ Week 9 loss to the Panthers, adding four catches for an additional 28 yards. Stating the obvious in his Monday press conference, Jeff Fisher admitted Gurley is not getting enough carries. (Case Keenum, by the way, attempted 46 passes in the loss to the Panthers.) Slowed by a bad offensive line, an unimaginative coaching staff and poor quarterback play, Gurley can no longer be viewed as a RB1. Plus, he currently is dealing with a thigh injury that held him out of practice on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
Gurley ranks as our RB19 for Week 10. We recommend following our rankings, so if there are better options available on your bench, it would be wise to bench Gurley given he could be limited. If he can't go, Benny Cunningham would draw the start for the Rams.
