The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ... Gurley was back on a football field Friday afternoon after about nine months. Although Gurley isn't fully recovered from a torn left ACL suffered last November, he's healthy enough to do some individual drills. It's the closest thing to actual football he's played since the injury. When asked about the simple act of being back on a field with his teammates, Gurley lit up. "It is [exciting]," Gurley said. "Instead of just being over there with the trainers, just being with the guys and getting those 15 minutes in [is great]."
Diehards Line:According to ESPN.com's Nick Wagoner, Gurley said he spent most of his time in St. Louis between the end of organized team activities and the start of camp aside from a quick vacation. He said he visited with his doctors about two weeks ago and got positive reports on his progress. HC Jeff Fisher said Gurley still has some work to do to get back to full speed but he's moving well. "Todd did a great job on the conditioning test," Fisher said. "He's not 100 percent. He's not ready to play in a game right now but our feeling was and the decision was based on the importance for him to be able to participate not only in the walk-throughs but also in the individual stuff. We'll just kind of add things as we move forward. We're very, very encouraged as to where he is right now." And we'll be watching his progress closely in coming weeks.
