Gurley coming out and running around pain free would tell us a lot and would be great.
My take? Whether or not he is pain free
now is not really relevant and won't reveal anything. He does not have some kind of damage that asserts itself every play. He apparently has a lingering condition of some kind that can flare up. In fact (as I point out in a different post) it flared up twice last year, and both times he was able to play again after the condition calmed down (in fact one of the incidents was in game 1). There is no telling when it will flare up again and in the meanwhile, he can look fine between flare-ups.
I know the prevailing wisdom is that he has a lingering condition but the Rams have really worked to keep us in the dark regarding his knee and most of what we hear is speculation from very knowledgeable sources. However those who speculate on the condition of the knee have not examined Gurley and are only offering educated speculation. What we know is that he had some sort of problem with the knee. He has had an off season to rehab the knee I am still curious to see how he responds this spring/summer.
