@ProFootballDoc: By my analysis, expect #ToddGurley to be close to 100% for playoffs this weekend. That was the point of the rest week 16 and 17, he could have played but now 1 month rest should have him healthier.
Dr. Chao, an internationally known sports medicine expert, has been practicing orthopedic surgery in San Diego, California for the past 17 years at OASIS. He is the former head team physician for the San Diego Chargers (1997-2013), where he specializes in orthopedic sports injuries. High profile professional athletes from the NFL, NBA, and MLB trust him, and so can you. When a sports related injury requires expert medical attention, Dr. Chao has the experience and expertise you need in a physician.
Not saying I don't believe the guy, but what does he mean by "by my analysis". How does a doctor analyze a patient without minimally a physical examination? Has Gurley been treated by him?
No way he examined Gurley. He goes by information he gets from his sources in the league and his experience. Also from what he sees on the field. It’s an educated guess, IMO. He knows Gurley had an MRI, knows there no structural damage. It’s Probably better than what we’ll get from anyone outside the Rams doctors/staff.
McVay said Gurley will practice tomorrow. If he’s a full go in practice this week, then that’s a very good sign.
