Rams keeping three running backs on 53-man roster will pay off

Leading up to Saturday’s deadline for the 53-man roster, there was plenty of speculation over the Los Angeles Rams making moves at running back, mainly when it comes to John Kelly and Justin Davis.

Despite some of the uncertainty surrounding Todd Gurley heading into Week 1 due to his knee, the last thing the Rams wanted to do is keep too many running backs around on the roster since there were other positions to address with spots as well.

With that being said, Saturday’s deadline for cuts came with plenty of surprises for Los Angeles, ranging from Dakota Allen to John Franklin-Myers.
