Rams running back Isaiah Pead earned the start over Daryl Richardson in the team's second preseason game against the Packers Saturday night.

Pead got four series with the first-team offense but did not make much of an impact as he finished with 31 yards of total offense, logging 21 yards on 11 carries (1.9 yards per carry) and 10 yards on one reception.

Richardson also worked with the first unit as he caught the only pass thrown his way for a 24-yard gain in the opening drive. He also broke for an 8-yard run and a caught a 14-yard pass before they were wiped off by offensive holding and illegal formation penalties, respectively.

Richardson appeared to have had an edge over Pead entering Saturday's game. The Rams will likely have its dress rehearsal game on Aug. 24 at Denver, which could indicate who has the edge for the job.
