Cunningham contributed 23 yards and a touchdown on four carries and added 20 yards on his sole reception in Saturday's 28-24 preseason victory over the Cowboys.
The backup tailback looked impressive while receiving the start in place of Todd Gurley, particularly on the Rams' second possession. Cunningham notched his 20-yard reception on that drive, and capped off the downfield march with a 14-yard touchdown run that served as the Rams' first points in their return to Los Angeles. The 26-year-old has proved serviceable over his first three campaigns as a rotational back, and figures to slot in a similar role in 2016 considering the ample workload that Gurley should command.
