Expectations were high for Todd Gurley heading into his second season with the Los Angeles Rams after taking home Rookie of the Year honors in 2015, but unfortunately the running back struggled all year, and even failed to break the 100-yard mark even once in a single game.
From a poor offensive line to seeing extra pressure from defenders stacking the box due to a weak receiving corps, there are plenty of reasons surrounding the struggles of Gurley in 2016, as the Rams went on to finish the season with a disappointing 4-12 record. Obviously, there’s nothing Gurley would love more than to be participating in Super Bowl 51 instead of being part of what happened this year in Los Angeles, but at least the former Georgia star can cheer on some of his former teammates.
