Rams coach McVay explains RB Gurley’s limited Super Bowl role

The Los Angeles Rams always planned to split carries between their two running backs in the Super Bowl, coach Sean McVay revealed on Tuesday. Los Angeles star Todd Gurley received just 11 touches in his team’s 13-3 loss to the New England Patriots on Sunday, one game after he also had a reduced role in the Rams’ win in the NFC championship. McVay explained the team also wanted backup C.J. Anderson to be involved in the offense against New England.
