Coach Sean McVay “pleasantly surprised” with Malcolm Brown

Malcolm Brown is a running back for The Rams. Brown has racked up 22 carries in his two seasons. Sean Mcvay has been very impressed with his performance at the training camp so far.

In a statement, he said “I think clearly Todd has done a great job kind of leading that group, but I’ve been pleasantly surprised with Malcolm Brown,” McVay said after Monday’s practice. “He’s kind of got a quiet confidence about himself where [he] just goes about his business. [He’s] really reliable, knows what to do and what not to do. And he’s a guy that we can depend on.”

Lance Dunbar has had a string of injuries. He is currently on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list. He has missed 26 games in his five seasons, so we can expect to see Brown have an increased presence at camp. Todd Gurley is still the clear starter. He However, when Gurley needs a break, McVay is sure that he can count Brown to be the shoulder.

Mcvay went on to say that “I think we’re looking to find who some of the other guys are that will be able to complement that room, and that’s something that’s ongoing,” McVay said. “So we’ll continue to monitor that and evaluate it moving forward. I think those two guys have really stood out in terms of Todd being the lead dog, being the epitome of what we want it to look like from that leader in that group. And I think Malcolm has done a nice job of establishing himself as that secondary role.”
