Kwon Alexander knows how important this weekend’s game against the Rams is. And Alexander knows that in order to secure a victory, he and the Buccaneers’ defense must slow down last year’s Offensive Rookie of the Year, Todd Gurley.
“Gurley’s a great back,” Alexander said on Buccaneers Total Access on Monday night. “He can do it all. He can catch the ball out of the backfield, he has great vision (and) is very explosive. He’s a very athletic back and he can make big plays. It’s going to be hard to stop him but we’re going to have to get him down this week.
