Prior to the 2018 season, the Los Angeles Rams gave Pro Bowl running back a four-year deal worth $60 million — a record-breaking contract for a running back at the time.

In return, the former Georgia Bulldog came out and had a career year, recording 1,831 yards from scrimmage and 21 total touchdowns for the NFC champion Rams.

However, Gurley suffered a fairly serious injury at the end of that season and in 2019, wasn't nearly as effective. This past season, the two-time All-Pro selection rushed the ball 223 times for 857 yards (3.8 YPC). On the bright side, Gurly did record 12 touchdowns on the ground and two more through the air.

With Los Angeles owing the 25-year-old back $10.5 million by March 20, the thought is that the Rams and head coach Sean McVay may want to sit down and talk to Gurley and possibly restructure his contract.

But, in the mind of Gurley, there's not much to talk about.

“It just depends on what the conversation is about,” Gurley said in an interview with Rich Hammond of The Athletic. “I’m more of a guy where, if there ain’t nothing to talk about, then there ain’t nothing to talk about. But if we’ve got something to talk about, then we can talk. That’s kind of my perspective. Coach got my number. Coach got my number.”

After going to the Super Bowl in 2018, the Rams finished third place in the NFC West, missing the playoffs for the 13th time in the last 15 seasons.
