The Los Angeles Rams and Cincinnati Bengals have taken a completely different approach at running back this season. The Rams have rotated players throughout the year, while the Bengals have leaned heavily on their workhorse, Joe Mixon.
Now in the Super Bowl, the Rams will have three guys available who have started games this season: Cam Akers, Sony Michel and Darrell Henderson Jr.
Sean McVay told reporters on Wednesday that he expects Henderson to play against the Bengals. He didn’t reveal how the Rams plan to deploy their trio of backs, but they’re going to ride the hot hand if one arises during the game.
