Perhaps more concerning is Gurley’s status heading into the playoffs per Rams Head Coach Sean McVay:
I would think [Gurley is available for the playoffs], but if you had said a couple of weeks ago that we’d have to hold him out for the last two weeks, we probably would have been surprised about that.
Based upon the information that we’re getting, there isn’t any reason for us to press the panic button or think that he won’t be available. But it is important for us to get him back to full speed and the health that he feels like he can go compete at and we’re not doing anything to put him at risk and he’s not doing anything for the longevity of his career.
Here’s the Niners’ side:
