The Rams haven’t listed running back Todd Gurley on their injury report in three weeks – since the week before the divisional-round game against the Cowboys – and coach Sean McVay deemed Gurley’s left knee at 100 percent.“He’s feeling good Deacon Jones Jersey , a hundred percent,” McVay said Friday. “We expect him to play a big role in this game.”Gurley missed the final two regular-season games with left knee inflammation. He gained 118 yards from scrimmage against the Cowboys. But his use in the NFC Championship Game raised questions about the health of his knee. Gurley played 32 snaps against the Saints, with a career-low five touches and 13 yards. C.J. Anderson played 37 snaps and had 17 touches for 49 yards.But the Rams expect Gurley to play a bigger role Sunday.“He didn’t have that many touches, but he still played a good amount of snaps [against the Saints] Eric Dickerson Jersey ,” McVay said. “We just weren’t able to run it as much as we’d like to, because New Orleans did a nice job stopping us. Then, we were in some two-minute situations at the end of the game and the end of the half where you’re more inclined to throw it. He should be good. But I think really our team, as a whole Marshall Faulk Jersey , is feeling really good just having two weeks since our last game and looking forward to the challenge and competing to the best of our ability.” The move toward young, offensive-minded assistants as head coaching candidates around the league has often been described as teams searching for the next Sean McVay.That comment came up frequently when word broke that the Packers are hiring Matt LaFleur as their new head coach. LaFleur was the Rams’ offensive coordinator in 2017 and worked with McVay in Washington before making the move to Los Angeles, which led to McVay calling it “awesome” that his former assistant got a top job.It also gave the 32-year-old a chance to quip that he’s “too young to have a coaching tree,” but one is still taking root. Rams assistants Zac Taylor and Shane Waldron interviewed with teams this month and McVay credited the entire organization for boosting their profiles.“It’s really the Rams’ success that we’ve had Nolan Cromwell Jersey ,” McVay said, via Joe Curley of the . “This is a reflection of the culture that’s created by the people that are here … It’s flattering for the organization.”Continued winning will lead to continued opportunities for Rams assistants and the team will look for the first playoff win of the McVay era on Saturday night.
