The biggest question concerning the Rams since they lost to the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LIII is Todd Gurley’s decrease in production. Head coach Sean McVay barely drew up plays to give Gurley the ball, and the 24-year-old running back didn’t look like himself throughout the postseason.
But now we may finally have an answer for as to why Gurley didn’t receive many touches.
According to The Athletic’s Jeff Howe, Gurley has arthritis in his knee. And Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio reported that the arthritis is in Gurley’s left knee — the same knee he had surgery on to repair a torn ACL he suffered during his final year at Georgia.
