The St. Louis Rams are likely to add more running backs to the roster before the start of training camp, as the team has only RBs Terrance Ganaway and Chase Reynolds on the roster after RBs Isaiah Pead and Daryl Richardson. "We'll fill the position," head coach Jeff Fisher said. "When and how I don't know."

St. Louis Rams RB Isaiah Pead is expected to compete for the starting running back job during offseason workouts and training camp. Head coach Jeff Fisher said Pead will not be used as punt returner and would only be a kick returner if he is used as a returner at all.

St. Louis Rams head coach Jeff Fisher said he thinks RB Isaiah Pead could be the lead back for the Rams and that is why he was drafted. RB Steven Jackson is expected to void his contract March 12 and test unrestricted free agency; even though there is a chance he could return to the team.

St. Louis Rams RB Isaiah Pead showed well late in the Week 8 game against the New England Patriots, and head coach Jeff Fisher indicated he might have earned more playing time. "We are going to try to get him some touches. It makes sense. You are playing in an NFL game; you are playing against NFL players and for him to flash like that regardless of the situation in the game was pretty impressive," Fisher said.

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis doesn't see the team trading for St. Louis Rams RB Steven Jackson before the deadline Thursday, Nov. 1. In fact, the Bengals were more interested in RB Isaiah Pead during the draft earlier this year, but the Rams aren't going to be giving him up.

The St. Louis Rams have declared QB Austin Davis, RB Isaiah Pead, DL Jermelle Cudjo, DL Matt Conrath, SS Matt Daniels, OT Rodger Saffold, WR Steve E. Smith inactive for Week 4.

St. Louis Rams RB Isaiah Pead did not have any carries or receptions in Week 1 against the Detroit Lions, although he was able to play. Pead's only game action came with one kickoff return for 25 yards. RB Daryl Richardson apparently past Pead on the team's depth chart. Richardson carried twice for 20 yards.
Fantasy Tip: Pead was drafted in the later rounds as a handcuff for fantasy owners of RB Steven Jackson, but it might be a good idea to swap out Pead for Washington. Other than that, neither is particularly attractive in weekly formats unless Jackson suffers a long-term injury.

St. Louis Rams RB Daryl Richardson was originally expected to simply compete for a roster spot, but he is now pushing RB Isaiah Pead for the No. 2 job behind RB Steven Jackson. In fact, head coach Jeff Fisher indicated Tuesday, Aug. 28, that Pead and Richardson are both expected to see time in the backfield behind Jackson.

St. Louis Rams rookie RB Isaiah Pead needs to embrace a north-south running style. He ran backward at times during the team's preseason game Saturday, Aug. 18, and his eight touches resulted in minus-8 yards. In his defense, the second-string offensive line has not given him a lot to work with during the past two games.

The St. Louis Rams plan to use RB Steven Jackson more in the upcoming season. The new offense under head coach Jeff Fisher and offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer is a run-first approach featuring Jackson, supplemented by rookie RB Isaiah Pead. Jackson, and Pead, will also be running behind a fullback this season.
