McVay hints at Week 17 approach
McVay on the Rams approach this week: “It is one of those deals where I think you might see us rest some guys and use this week… knowing that you do have a home playoff game, regardless of how things play out, this might provide an opportunity to get some guys healthy.” (Joe Curley on Twitter)
Nerdy Football Analysis: McVay hinted that if offensive lineman Whitworth and Sullivan were to miss that perhaps Jared Goff and Todd Gurley could be rested too. With the Rams locked into a home playoff game, it’s likely Goff and Gurley won’t play much if at all against the 49ers.
