Rams coach Jeff Fisher said he expects running back Todd Gurley to take on a larger workload in Sunday's game against the Cardinals, USA Today's Tom Pelissero reports.
"I think [Gurley] played 14 snaps [in Week 3]," Fisher said Friday. "I would expect him to play a lot more this week."
Gurley worked in tandem with Tre Mason and Benny Cunningham in last week's loss to the Steelers, gaining just nine yards on six carries and five yard on one reception. Though he'll likely continue to split snaps with his teammates, Gurley's workload should increase as the season moves on, starting with Sunday's tough matchup in Arizona. It probably won't be long before Gurley emerges as the clear lead back, but his upside may be capped by the shaky offense around him.
