It’s the only 100-yard rushing game of Benny Cunningham’s career, but he didn’t seem interested in talking about it.

“I don’t think about that game,” he said after practice Wednesday. “I think about the Bears now.”

It was Nov. 24, 2013, and Cunningham went off for 109 rushing yards on only 13 carries, carving up the Bears defense and leading the Rams to a 42-21 victory. Only two current Bears were on that team: Kyle Long and Sherrick McManis.

Cunningham spent his first four NFL seasons with the Rams, always a reserve back getting a handful of carries per game.
