I wonder if it is just a pain management issue, since he isn't having any surgery it isn't structural .
Yeah. We know it's not structural. They had an MRI, and it's not structural and not surgical.
Thing is, though, any number of things could lead to his knee feeling very bad after game 1, and then cause pain and inflammation to the point where he had to be rested in December. But since whatever that is (and arthritis has been suggested) is not an injury, under the rules, they don't have to discuss it.
Here's an exchange about that:

On @RichEisenShow, #LARams HC Sean McVay says on RB Todd Gurley, “You can expect him to be the focal point of our offense” going forward, when asked about if Gurley will be on more of a pitch count in 2019.
Rich Hammond@Rich_Hammond
The problem here is, this basically is what he said before the Super Bowl. And then…
This issue still hasn’t fully been addressed on a transparent level.
(This is not directed at Myles, FYI.)
The thing is, from a competitive standpoint, the Rams probably don’t want to say how they will use Gurley in 2019. And they probably shouldn’t say it. But this little two-step that’s been going on since December is…eh.
