Todd Gurley Says the Rams Are ‘Past Due’: ‘Send Me Money ASAP’
Written by SOURCE on April 9, 2020
Atlanta Falcons running back Todd Gurely took to Twitter on Wednesday to publicly put the Los Angeles Rams on blast over an unpaid balance.
“@RamsNFL past due. Send me money ASAP,” Gurley wrote to his former team. Gurley is reportedly owed over $7 million for a fully-guaranteed roster bonus, according to Pro Football Talk. He signed a four-year, $60 million extension with the Rams a little less than two years ago. Said deal also included $45 million in guarantees.

Gurley wasn’t the only one that had financial issues with the Rams. Current free agent Clay Matthews responded to Gurley’s tweet and said that the Rams owe him money too. Both players were released by the Rams back in March with Gurley later signing a one year contract with the Falcons for 5.5 million. Matthews is reportedly owed a fully-guaranteed roster bonus of $2 million. Both Gurley and Matthews’ contracts with the Rams are said to have included offset language.
