Lance Dunbar

The first player is a player they signed in free agency. He has been in the league for a few years now. Additionally, he was on a playoff team last year.

He only had 31 yards off of 9 rushing attempts all season long, yet still scored a touchdown. However, he had 16 receptions for 122 yards. Perhaps they signed him for one year to see what he brings to LA.

Lance Dunbar is the former Cowboys reserve running back. His stats prove he is outstanding in making receptions and gaining yards.

Additionally, he is versatile since he can gain yards from the ground or from the air. By being a back who make receptions that makes him a good target for Goff when all out of options or on trick plays.

Also, Gurley is more of the hard nose back therefore when Dunbar is in, there is no telling what the play call will be. Dunbar is the only running back who is a receiving threat on this list.
