Rams' Todd Gurley: Tending to thigh injury

Gurley was held out of Wednesday's practice due to a thigh injury, Rich Hammond of the Orange County Register reports.

Analysis:

After kicking off his career with four 100-yard efforts in his first five games, Gurley has reached that threshold just once in the ensuing 16 contests. During that stretch, he's racked up 982 yards at a clip of 3.5 YPC, yet he's supplemented his lines with 10 touchdowns and 36 receptions for 314 yards. Perhaps Gurley's DNP is merely a precautionary measure, but his ability (or lack thereof) to practice the next two days will shed light on his odds to hit the road for Sunday's game against the Jets.
