The production and the result were not the desired outcome, but from a health standpoint, running back Todd Gurley’s debut on Sunday was a success.
“I was fine, I felt good,” Gurley said of his recovery on Monday. “Just a little bit of soreness. It was nothing too crazy.”
As you might expect, the running back said he’s glad to have the ballgame out of the way.
“It definitely felt good just to get that first one out,” Gurley said.
While Gurley tallied only 9 yards on six carries and had one 5-yard reception, offensive coordinator Frank Cignetti said he was encouraged by what he saw out of the rookie running back.
