In the Rams' backfield competition, Daryl Richardson "looks to be the leader in the clubhouse as he and [Isaiah] Pead enter their second NFL seasons," reports ESPN.com. Rookies Zac Stacy and Benny Cunningham and second-year back Terrance Ganaway "are also trying to work their way into the mix," the report said.
Richardson ran for a team-high 24 yards on four carries in the preseason opener, adding two catches for 20 yards.
