The Facts: Gurley was not in attendance for the start of the team’s organized team activities. HC Sean McVay said the Rams sat down with Gurley to work out a plan for the offseason, which included training on his own some. “As long as we’re on the same page, we feel good about that,” McVay said, “and most importantly, Todd feels good. He’s got a lot of experience. He’s staying up to date with everything that’s going on. But that’s where we’re at with him right now.”
Diehards Line:
It's safe to say Gurley’s absent won’t quiet the questions about his knee. Gurley missed the final two regular-season games with “inflammation” before gaining 118 yards from scrimmage against the Cowboys in the divisional round. He then played a complementary role the rest of the way, including 35 yards on 10 carries in the Super Bowl loss to the Patriots. The Rams have talked about managing Gurley’s workload, while keeping him the focal point of the offense. They matched the Lions’ offer to Malcolm Brown this offseason and then used a third-round pick on Memphis running back Darrell Henderson. Gurley said on April 15 his left knee felt “pretty good” but didn’t allow much more than that. We'll continue watching for more.
