Named to the Pro Bowl last month, the honors continue to roll in for Rams running back Todd Gurley. He was named NFL rookie of the year, and also the NFL offensive rookie of the year Tuesday by the Pro Football Writers of America.
Gurley is the first Rams player to win offensive rookie of the year since quarterback Sam Bradford in 2010. The Rams haven’t had a player named overall rookie of the year since running back Jerome Bettis with the Los Angeles Rams in 1993.
Gurley finished third in the NFL in rushing this season with 1,106 yards, and scored 10 touchdowns.
