Jeff Howe of TheAthletic.com reports that Gurley has arthritis in the knee.

It’s the same knee that underwent an ACL repair in 2014. If the report is accurate, what will the Rams do about it? Coach Sean McVay discussed stem-cell treatment options for the knee this week at the Scouting Combine. If Gurley has arthritis that comes from a loss of cartilage, microfracture surgery presumably would be a possibility. However, the Rams have said that Gurley won’t have surgery.

Isn't that what Greg Oden had? His career never really took, sucks for Gurley he better start saving his dough.

This explains the lack of use in the end of 2018 / superbowl.

You don't realize how important your knees are and the pain involved in injured knees or arthritis. Poor guy is young, gotta feel for him.

Hope he saves his pennies for the future.

That's rough. He's always had shitty knees though. Rams shouldn't have given him the bookoo bucks.

Wow!
For his sake, he is so lucky he signed his big deal last off season!!
