Running back Todd Gurley has officially retired from the NFL after playing just six seasons in the league. The former first-round pick burst onto the scene with the St. Louis Rams in 2015 and was considered one of the best backs in football at one point.
However, an ACL injury in college hampered him all the way through his career and prevented him from performing at the required level for an extended period. Gurley retired at the age of just 28 after seemingly having the world at his feet.
He left the NFL after 88 games, posting 6,082 rushing yards, 67 rushing touchdowns and 12 receiving touchdowns.
Todd Gurley is worth $4 million
As of October 2022, Todd Gurley's net worth is $4 million. That does seem rather low for a player who has earned $49,066,286 across six seasons in the NFL, per spotrac.com.
In 2018, the Rams decided to extend his contract and made him, at the time, the highest-paid running back in the NFL. A five-year, $60 million deal with $45 million guaranteed was a huge payday.
He missed only five games in four years, but his production on the field that started to wane. As mentioned above, his knee, which he injured in college, gave him grief.
In his last season with Atlanta, through 15 games, he totaled 678 rushing yards and nine touchdowns.
He had the backfield largely to himself, occasionally sharing it with the likes of Brian Hill. Gurley's unique skillset as a rusher and pass-catcher saw him play an important role in then-head coach Dan Quinn's offense. His utility made him an effective weapon to draw in defenses and open up the passing game downfield.
What is also rather interesting is that in each season, the running back's rushing attempts fell. This was likely due to his injury issues. Still, despite the back retiring early, he has a decent net worth and will likely not have an issue in transitioning into the next phase of his career.
