Rams running back Todd Gurley had a tremendous season under first year head coach Sean McVay in 2017. And after leading the league in yards from scrimmage, total touchdowns, and rushing touchdowns, Gurley has been named the FedEx Ground Player of the Year.
The annual award — along with the FedEx Air Player of the Year given to Eagles’ quarterback Carson Wentz — is representative of a culmination of weekly awards presented by FedEx throughout the NFL season. Each gives football fans the ability to honor standout quarterback and running back performances each week.
Gurley won the Player of the Week designation several times this season, including two back-to-back honors in Weeks 15 and 16.
