  • Posted: 7/7/2018 7:24pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley's 343 touches were the third most in the NFL last season, and Alden Gonzalez of ESPN.com expects Gurley to remain the 'backbone' of the offense and handle a similar workload in 2018.

    Huddle Up: Gurley blossomed as an every-down back in Sean McVay's offense, topping 2,000 total yards and scoring 19 times. He is firmly in the conversation to be the No. 1 overall pick in drafts.

  • Posted: 5/29/2018 8:46pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley amassed a NFL-high 39 carries of at least 10 yards in 2017, four more than second-place Kareem Hunt and five more than third-place Melvin Gordon.

    Huddle Up: Gurley ran wild in his first season under the direction of Sean McVay, rushing for 420 more yards in 2017 despite recording only one more carry than he did the previous season. The Rams are set to return the same five offensive linemen who paved the way for him, making Gurley an easy back to love in fantasy. While he is most likely going to take a hit in the touchdown department after scoring 19 last season, he is well worth taking No. 1 overall in drafts.

  • Posted: 2/3/2018 6:13pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley was named the 2017 Associated Press Offensive Player of the Year Saturday, Feb. 3.

    Huddle Up: With Sean McVay at the helm, Gurley was unleashed as an every-down weapon in 2017, and he led the NFL in yards from scrimmage and touchdowns. He'll be in the mix for the top pick in 2018.

  • Posted: 1/6/2018 8:32pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley rushed 14 times for 101 yards and caught four passes for 10 yards in a 26-13 loss to the Atlanta Falcons Saturday, Jan. 6.

    Huddle Up: Gurley led the NFL in yards from scrimmage and touchdowns in 2017, and he should be one of the first players off the board in 2018 as the centerpiece of the suddenly potent Rams offense.

  • Posted: 12/28/2017 1:15pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley is the third running back ever to gain at least 2,000 yards from scrimmage and at least 19 total touchdowns at 23 years old or younger. The other two running backs to accomplish the feat were Hall of Fame RBs Eric Dickerson and Emmitt Smith.

    Huddle Up: It was a season for the ages for Gurley, who won't even play the season finale this week. His name can now be mentioned with Le'Veon Bell, David Johnson and Antonio Brown as the players most deserving of the No. 1 choice in 2018 fantasy drafts.

  • Posted: 12/27/2017 5:25pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley will not play in the team's Week 17 game, according to head coach Sean McVay.

    Huddle Up: The Rams want to make sure Gurley is ready for the playoffs, so he will not play against the San Francisco 49ers. Malcolm Brown probably will receive most of the work at running back and could be a flex option in most leagues.

  • Posted: 12/27/2017 7:36am ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley could sit out of the Week 17 contest against the San Francisco 49ers after head coach Sean McVay said there will be starters that won't play at all.

    Huddle Up: Malcolm Brown could be worth a flex start in the season finale. However, be advised that the 49ers have been ridiculously good against the position the last five weeks. They've allowed the least amount of points to RBs over the stretch.

  • Posted: 12/24/2017 2:46pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley rushed 22 times for 118 yards in Week 16 against the Tennessee Titans and he added 10 receptions for 158 yards and two touchdowns on 13 targets.

    Huddle Up: Gurley has been a fantasy beast and one-man wrecking crew for those in the playoffs, posting 270 rushing yards and three scores over the past two games while adding 13 grabs for 186 yards and three more scores through the air.

  • Posted: 12/17/2017 8:44pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley rushed 21 times for 152 yards and three touchdowns and caught three passes for 28 yards and a touchdown in a 42-7 win over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15.

    Huddle Up: Gurley has been a must-start RB1 all year, but this was a big game even by his standards.

  • Posted: 12/10/2017 8:54pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley rushed 13 times for 96 yards with two touchdowns in Week 14 against the Philadelphia Eagles and he was able to add three receptions for 39 yards on five targets.

    Huddle Up: Gurley had another big performance, and it was especially impressive since the Eagles entered as the NFL's top rushing defense. He remains a bona fide RB1 in all fantasy leagues after being a total bust in 2016.

  • Posted: 12/3/2017 8:52pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley rushed 19 times for 74 yards in Week 13 against the Arizona Cardinals and he added six receptions for a team-high 84 yards on seven targets.

    Huddle Up: Gurley has over 100 total scrimmage yards in six of the past seven outings, although he has failed to score in back-to-back for just the second time this season. After a disappointing 2016 he has emerged as a legitimate RB1 in across all fantasy formats, especially PPR leagues.

  • Posted: 11/26/2017 8:01pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley rushed 17 times for 74 yards and caught four passes 54 yards in a 26-20 win over the New Orleans Saints in Week 12.

    Huddle Up: Other than not finding the end zone, it's tough to complain about Gurley's final line. Expect another RB1 effort from him in Week 13 in rematch with an Arizona Cardinals team that he torched for 154 total yards and a score the first time around.

  • Posted: 11/19/2017 3:37pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley was limited to 37 rushing yards on 15 attempts in Week 11 against the Minnesota Vikings, but he did score the team's only touchdown.

    Huddle Up: Gurley also chipped in with three receptions for 19 yards on four targets. He'll look for even better results in Week 12 at home in a potential shootout against the Saints.

  • Posted: 11/12/2017 7:56pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley ran 11 times for 68 yards and caught six passes for 68 yards in a 33-7 win over the Houston Texans in Week 10.

    Huddle Up: The Rams didn't need Gurley to carry the ball much with Jared Goff carving up Houston. Fortunately, Gurley's involvement in the passing game this year allows him to produce RB1 numbers no matter how the game develops.

  • Posted: 11/5/2017 1:29pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley rushed for 59 yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries against the New York Giants in Week 9. He also caught two passes for 45 yards during the game.

    Huddle Up: Gurley has recorded at least 100 total yards in six of the eight games this season and has three touchdowns in the last two games. He can be considered a No. 1 fantasy running back against the Houston Texans in Week 10.

  • Posted: 10/22/2017 5:18pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley rushed 22 times for 106 yards and a touchdown in Week 7 against the Arizona Cardinals in London and he added four grabs for 48 yards on eight targets.

    Huddle Up: Gurley was a complete bust from a fantasy perspective last season, at least based upon where he was drafted in most leagues. This season he slipped on draft day a bit and has paid off handsomely. His absence will be a big hole for fantasy owners in the bye in Week 8.

  • Posted: 10/21/2017 8:38pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley faces the Arizona Cardinals in London in Week 7, and he said the NFL needs to stop overseas games.

    Huddle Up: Gurley might be unhappy with the lengthy travel, but that shouldn't stop him from producing. He has rushed for more 100 yards in three of his last four games, and he has delivered at least 96 yards from scrimmage in five of his six games this year. Plug him in as a RB1.

  • Posted: 10/15/2017 8:46pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley rushed 23 times for 116 yards in Week 6 against the Jacksonville Jaguars and he added one catch for four yards on his only target.

    Huddle Up: Gurley had a disastrous season from a fantasy perspective in 2016, but he has been a bona fide RB1 in all fantasy formats this season. He'll look to keep it rolling in Week 7 against the Arizona Cardinals over in England.

  • Posted: 10/8/2017 8:56pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley rushed 14 times for 43 yards in Week 5 against the Seattle Seahawks and he added two receptions for seven yards on four targets.

    Huddle Up: Gurley was attempting to reach for the goal line early in the game, lost the handle at the 1-yard line and the ball hit the pylon and was given to the Seahawks. He'll look to get back on track in Week 6 on the road against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

  • Posted: 10/7/2017 6:49pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley said the 'sky's the limit' for their offense, and he credits head coach Sean McVay's ability to spread the ball around for their success this year.

    Huddle Up: Gurley is off to a great start, and he is locked in as a RB1 in Week 5 against a Seattle Seahawks defense that is allowing 5.0 yards per carry and 134.0 rushing yards per game.

  • Posted: 10/1/2017 5:27pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley rushed 23 times for 121 yards in Week 4 against the Dallas Cowboys and he added seven receptions for a team-high 94 yards and a score on eight targets.

    Huddle Up: Gurley was a huge bust in 2016 from a fantasy perspective, but his failures in the run game were likely a result of the passing game struggling mightily. Jared Goff has been much better this season, opening up more open spaces for Gurley to roam.

  • Posted: 9/21/2017 9:15pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley carried the ball 28 times for 113 yards (4.0 YPC) and two touchdowns against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 3. Gurley added 36 yards and another score on five receptions.

    Huddle Up: Incredibly, this was Gurley's first 100-plus-yard rushing game since Dec. 13, 2015, against the Lions (a span of 20 games). He now leads the NFL in touchdowns with six and is averaging 127 total yards per game. If you're looking for an asterisk it's that Gurley fumbled for the third straight contest and fourth time this year. Still, after a dismal 2016 he's looking like a legitimate workhorse and viable RB1.

  • Posted: 9/21/2017 8:54pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley finished with 28 carries for 113 yards and two touchdowns and added five catches for 36 yards and a score in a 41-39 win over the San Francisco 49ers in Week 3.

    Huddle Up: Gurley now has as many touchdowns in three games this year as he did in all of 2016. He is quickly looking like a weekly RB1 option in all formats once again.

  • Posted: 9/17/2017 9:23pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley rushed 16 times for 88 yards and a touchdown in Week 2 against the Redskins and he added three receptions for 48 yards and his first-career receiving score on four targets.

    Huddle Up: Gurley rushed for just six touchdowns in 2016, but he already has three total scores through two games this season. He has the potential to be an elite fantasy option and he is taking some big steps forward toward realizing that potential this season. The Rams meet the 49ers on the road Thursday in Week 3.

  • Posted: 9/16/2017 8:56pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley averaged 0.84 yards before first contact in Week 1, which ranked 37th among 41 running backs. 'We've just got to be more physical, whether me, just everybody,' Gurley said.

    Huddle Up: The stat indicates that Gurley didn't have a lot of help from his offensive line in the opener, but his involvement in the passing game and the performance of Jared Goff were encouraging for his long-term prospects. He should at least be a volume-based RB2 against the Redskins in Week 2.

  • Posted: 9/10/2017 7:35pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley carried 19 times for 40 yards and a touchdown and caught five passes for 56 yards in a 46-9 win over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 1.

    Huddle Up: Despite an improved offense line and a solid game from Jared Goff, Gurley still found running room tough to come by. On the plus side, he was more involved in the passing game. His heavy workload should have him flirting with RB1 status against Washington in Week 2.

  • Posted: 8/26/2017 5:39pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley was rested for the team's third preseason game against the Los Angeles Chargers on Saturday, Aug. 26.

    Huddle Up: There has been no mention of an injury with Gurley, so this move was likely made with an eye on preserving the Rams' offensive centerpiece for the regular season. With an improved supporting cast around him, a sharp offensive mind calling plays and no realistic option to push him for playing time, Gurley makes a fine selection in the middle of the second round of most drafts.

  • Posted: 8/22/2017 6:29pm ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley ranked 41st in fantasy efficiency among 42 qualifying running backs in 2016. He finished last in PPR fantasy scoring per touch, and second to last in standard fantasy points per touch as well as offensive yards per touch. Gurley ranked 39th in standard fantasy points per contest and 22nd in PPR points per game, which was his highest ranking of any efficiency category.

    Huddle Up: You can thank Jeff Fisher's predictable brand of football (and a lack of overall talent) for those numbers. Life should get better, albeit possibly a marginal improvement, for Gurley in 2017. The Rams will be more diverse and dynamic under Sean McVay. In theory, Jared Goff will have taken a step forward, too, by season's end. Gurley is a shaky RB1 and better drafted as a second in all formats.

  • Posted: 8/2/2017 7:16am ET

    Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley is expected to see more action in the passing game after the injury to RB Lance Dunbar (knee). He needs to improve as a pass blocker to be used more often on third downs. 'When you have a special player like Todd, you want to continue to find ways to get him involved but also be mindful of, ?What is that fine balance between him being at his best and not wearing him out??' head coach Sean McVay said. 'That is something that we?re continuing to find out.'

    Huddle Up: Gurley has been below the league average in yards per rush in 21 of his 28 starts after taking the league by storm once he touched the field. Gurley is a low-end RB1 with significant upside.
