NFC Notes: Todd Gurley, Rams, Saints

Todd Gurley

Rams RB Todd Gurley says he isn’t dealing with any issues related to his knee and he’s good to go for the Super Bowl. 

“I’m good. If there was an issue on my knee, it would be on the injury report,” Gurley said, via Pro Football Talk. “Come on now. I’m at practice. I’m playing.”

As for his role in the Rams’ offense, Gurley says he doesn’t ask questions and focusing solely on doing his job.

I don’t ask no questions. I just do my job,” Gurley said. “We got the win. That’s all that matters. I can not play one snap. I don’t care if [long snapper] Jake McQuaide is the Super Bowl MVP. I’ve got one more game left. I don’t care what nobody’s talking about. Y’all can call me hurt. Y’all can call me whatever, but we’re going to the Super Bowl.

“What do y’all not understand? It’s not about me. This sport has never been about me. It’s never been about one player. Todd’s only going to be with the Rams so much longer. It’s going to be another dude that comes in just like me. This whole game is bigger than me. It’s not just about me. Why is Todd not getting the ball? Why is that? Because there’s only one football, and there’s 11 guys. Only one guy can touch the ball each time. It’s way bigger than me.”
