Todd Gurley II Fantasy

Former Pro Bowl running back Todd Gurley II is visiting with the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday, according to a source. The former Los Angeles Rams and Atlanta Falcons runner also recently visited the Detroit Lions. If Gurley were to join Baltimore, he'd be joining a crowded backfield that also includes J.K. Dobbins, Gus Edwards and Justice Hill. Gurley, who just hasn't been the same since dealing with chronic knee issues, would likely serve in more of a complementary role next to Dobbins and Edwards if he were to sign with the Ravens. The 26-year-old had career-lows in carries (195) and rushing yards (678) while posting 3.5 yards per carry and nine rushing touchdowns. Gurley added 25 receptions for 164 yards through the air. Even though Baltimore's offense is a run-first unit, Gurley would have a rather low ceiling in this crowded backfield.

Free-agent running back Todd Gurley II is visiting with the Detroit Lions on Thursday, according to a source. If he were to sign with Detroit, Gurley would be reunited with quarterback Jared Goff and join the backfield with another former Georgia standout in D'Andre Swift. Gurley, a three-time Pro Bowler and two-time first-team All-Pro with the Los Angeles Rams, posted career-lows in carries (195) and rushing yards (678) in his lone season with the Atlanta Falcons last season. The 26-year-old has aged very quickly in today's NFL, and chronic knee issues haven't helped his cause. At this point in his career, Gurley is no longer a workhorse running back, and he'd likely fill more of a complementary role behind Swift alongside Jamaal Williams if he were to sign with the Lions.

Atlanta Falcons running back Todd Gurley II carried the ball nine times for just 18 rushing yards in a 44-27 loss to Tampa Bay. Gurley added a catch for 17 yards as he finished the season with a dud. The 26-year-old recorded 195 carries, a new career-low, for 678 rushing yards and nine touchdowns after signing a one-year deal with Atlanta this past offseason. He often ran unimpressively and looked less explosive at times than backfield mates Brian Hill and Ito Smith, not to mention that his fantasy value was largely carried by his ability to find the end zone. With a new head coach and general manager likely on the way in, Gurley could very well find himself looking for a new place to call home this offseason. He won't come anywhere close to his 2020 ADP of 29 in 2021, though he could have some value depending on where he lands.
