Todd Gurley ready to fight fantasy owner

Todd Gurley II isn’t having a great statistical year. Real or fantasy.

Then again, neither are the Los Angeles Rams.

But if you thought the Jeff Fisher situation was drama enough in Los Angeles, think again.

A season after gaining 1,106 rushing yards on 229 carries as a rookie, there was a lot of talk about the former Georgia Bulldog threatening Eric Dickerson’s 2,105 single-season rushing mark.

But things aren’t looking as golden in Gurley’s second year as a pro.

After another ho-hum performance Thursday night against the Seattle Seahawks in which Gurley had 14 carries for 38 yards, fans started lashing out:

@TG3II if I ever see you in public we're fist fighting over your fantasy football performance this year

And Gurley fired back:

Pull up then. https://t.co/EmZBhVvZk0
