Things just got interesting.
The Los Angeles Rams, who initiated one of the more unfortunate market fluctuations on top-tier running backs, cut the player in question early Thursday.
Todd Gurley is now on the free market and apparently interested in playing for the Seattle Seahawks.
Players are often motivated by slight, as anyone who has ever heard of Richard Sherman or Doug Baldwin knows. Gurley skyrocketed from grace in L.A. and would have the opportunity to prove his former team wrong if he remained with an NFC West contender.
