Former Rams RB Todd Gurley Wears Eagles Jersey And Says He’s Rooting For Them In Playoff Game

The Los Angeles Rams are traveling to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles in the NFC Divisional Round on Sunday afternoon. The winner will advance to the NFC Championship Game to play either the Washington Commanders or Detroit Lions.

With lines being drawn in the sand, former Rams star Todd Gurley is on the side of the Eagles. In a video posted online, Gurley is wearing a Jalen Hurts jersey. During the video, Gurley said, “This is the type of fit only winners wear… Philly Green.”

This decision surprises many because Gurley was the 10th overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft by the Rams. he spent five seasons with the team but his time with the Rams ended on a bad note.

Los Angeles ended up releasing the 30-year-old in 2020. He dealt with multiple knee injuries in Los Angeles, which significantly hindered his performance. In July 2018, Los Angeles gave Gurley a four-year, $60 million extension but didn’t last two years into the deal.

That rubbed him the wrong way, which is probably why he’s rooting against them on Sunday.
