The Pro Bowl version of Todd Gurley II has started to return, and Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay had a notable reason for it.
"Me not being an idiot," he said Wednesday when describing why Gurley is getting the ball more of late, per Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com.
Gurley ran for 95 yards and a touchdown on 19 carries in Sunday's win over the Arizona Cardinals after accumulating 97 yards on 25 carries against the Chicago Bears in Week 11. The only other time he finished with more than 100 yards from scrimmage this season was in a Week 1 victory over the Carolina Panthers.
