Todd Gurley’s comeback season in the ATL continues. The Atlanta Falcons Running back has rejuvenated his career early in the 2020 season with the Falcons.
Gurley did not miss much time due to injury. However, Gurley’s usage did wane with the Los Angeles Rams in the 2019 season. A far cry from the 2017-2018 seasons where he led the NFL in rushing touchdowns. Moreover, less than his rookie season when he was offensive rookie of the year. The drop off was so evident sports media began to question whether his career was over.
