He Was the NFL’s Best Running Back, Then He Disappeared 

I was just watching highlights of Todd Gurley not that long ago its sad to see that knee injury hurt him in the long run . Good video as always

An absolute tragedy with those damn knee injuries he had. He was supposed to be the next Eric Dickerson for the Rams. Unfortunately it didn't last long.

The 2018 Rams had Cooper Kupp and Gurley get hurt that season. That team if healthy would have caked walked to a Super Bowl.

Great video, Lauren!!! I always think "what could have been" with Todd Gurley! If he played healthy from 2019-2022/2023, he may have been a HOF RB!

Running backs should be one of the highest paid players on the team. They do all the dirty work, take a ton of damage to their bodies, make spectacular athletic plays, and have typically short careers. Without great running backs football would be pretty boring..so pay them!

He was already damaged goods when the rams drafted him and yet he still managed to have a few good years.

It was "girly" not to admit that Todd's busted knee was not holding up. Todd's football career ended early because of the knee injury.

Great overview of his career, thought the pacing from college to draft thru ups & downs with the Rams was really on point. Her speaking style (like how she delivers the lines) always strikes me as really good too. It's sad to think what could've been for Gurley with his level of talent, but at least he got that almost 70m contract to soften the landing....

Oh my gosh I forgot about Todd damn it’s been so long time really does fly

Those rams jersey was fire tho 💯💯 the white and blue

Thanks for putting together this video. I remember drafting him in fantasy football and just being excited to watch him play. So sad his career ended so soon

Great vid as always! Feel like MJD would be right up your alley too in terms of his downfall. Great player, led the league in rushing yards in 2011, had a nasty contract holdout in 2012, then came back and suffered a season-ending injury a month later, and was never the same

Perfect example of a PURE athlete, just more talented and better then everyone else

Breath of fresh air this is the first lady I seen with a sports channel that's actually a fan

Gurely was still on the fantasy football list under the free agency forever and I would always wonder what happened to him. Then a coworker told me he has bad knees.

I really like you, Flemlo, and Scott Fisher a lot as story tellers. Y'all have a good way about yourselves and it comes through in your videos. Much success to you all.👍

You are the best RU-vidr you tell great story’s keep it up

Really love your videos. Very well researched and always well done! Have you thought about branching out and doing other sports?

Great reporting. You deserve all the success coming to you

He was being used too much and playing through injury when he should have been recovering

Honestly they are our rivals but Todd Gurley was a joy to watch, i hated when Seahawks went up against him because he could destroy us but injuries just ended his career way to early. A shame.

Great video and info. Curious… how do you get all this info to create these videos. Do you just do a ton of research and then put it all together in story form? They really are well done!

Love your videos! I hope you don't mind if I add something here real quick? Although they did announce it in week 14, it was week 11 versus the Chiefs when he was injured, it was during the first quarter when someone landed on his legs from behind. That's when he was out for at least a couple of quarters and reduced the running game. During their bye-week that's when the Rams get CJ Henderson. He also ended up having a shared workload in week 13. I hope you don't mind me commenting this!

Todd Gurley absolute dominate force when healthy! Unfortunate to say the least, maybe on the Mount Rusmore of What If: Running Backs

great video! I feel sorry for Gurley, I wonder if he would be better than McCaffrey now

I can’t believe he played through his injury great video Lauren.

Dude was a beast...miss watching him

This video was pretty intrsting because i have always wondered what happened to todd because for a while he was doing well in the nfl, but those knee injuries just were too much to overcome and more context on why he couldnt go no more. his last team was like a tryout i think? did u ever read into that lauren?

I will forever love gurley he made me excited to be a Rams fan again and he was my first Rams jersey I ever got. Thank you TG forever a Ram!

Just a little side note: 1:22 it was a hip drop tackle against LSU that took out Gurley's ankle.

I’m a AZ cardinals fan but man I miss seeing Todd Gurley go off on teams 😭😭

Coaches are like politicians-liars

Well done SGS. Beautiful delivery.

Lauren returns!

A few million is worth not being able to walk at 50, but much love for Todd, I’ve climbed trees for power company’s since I was 16 now my knees are bone on bone and I’m missing 4 disc in lower back but like him I would do it all again. Good luck to one of the best!

Do a where are they now video on the players chip Kelly cut drafted or signed when he was the eagles coach

Whenever the Eagles play the Rams. Everybody, watch your knees! Just ask Carson Wentz.

Todd Gurley II was such a BadAss Running Back with the Bulldogs of UGA like no doubt he was tremendously so amazing to watch but in the 2015 NFL Draft he's a 1st Round 10th overall by the Rams he didn't disappoint from Day-1 winning Rookie of the year but in 2017 he won NFL's Offensive player of the year but in 2018 he went to his 1st Super Bowl trip but LOST to the Patriots so in 2020 he went to the Falcons then 3 Years Later he Vanished out of thin air

Te estás volviendo la mejor! Never vanish por favor 🙏

Knees. It wasn't a cover up. Its why LA dropped him in "prime". Understand, he did what he did on one leg. His entire career was with a bad knee. Massive what if?

By Far Was The Best Running Back. Even after the Injury at Georgia, still came into League Dominance

He's chilling right now❤

Injuries.Todd played He also ran straight up allowing defenders to get good clean shots.

He would have like 50 yards off 18 carries then break 1 long run to make his stats look decent

Jeff fisher was doodoo 😂

Him and Michael Thomas are the D roses of the NFL

Godd Turley Never forget

WD-40 works great for arthritis, yes, it does work.

At least he got the bag before he retired

Ecclesiastes 11:5 As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.

Good thing the refs saved the Rams vs the Saints

I had Gurley in fantasy his rookie year and it was great haha

Excellent video. The fact I’m being educated by a woman about football is refreshing.

If he and cooper kupp would have stayed healthy, i think it seems likely thatcthe rams win the superbowl and gurley gets the mvp and changes the trajectory of the running backs future income. If the patriots play the same with 13 pts

Wow 😮. To Henderson and now he’s no where to be found because the Rams drafted Williams and in due time Williams will out of the league as well unless the Rams start sharing the ball more as he’s utilized too much in the pass game and run game.

He was the last great running back.

What vanished were his knees

I can shorten this video for everyone , he had no cartilage in either knees left coming out in the draft but he was still drafted . Bad medical reports were ignored his entire career, I’ll be surprised if he can walk when he’s 50 .

glad i witnessed greatness w TG30 RAMILY 4L

The Tennessee Tidens?

I love your channel, it's the female version of nonsports in a good way 👍🏼👍🏼❤️

Best RB in the league to scoring the most boneheaded TD in NFL history.

THANK GOD FOR ANOTHER DAY!!!!, MAKE SURE TO PRAY , HAVE A SAFE AND BLESSED DAY , MAY GOD BLESS YOUR SOUL ABUNDANTLY , MAY GOD BLESS ALL YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS SOULS ABUNDANTLY✝️✝️!!!!

You mean CMC 🤩

He had one of the worse last names in sports lol he was like rudy gay 😂😂😂 not to trigger feminist and pro lgbt people but in sports those are terrible jersey names

He should have ran like a girly man to avoid injuries

7 deadly sins of rich owners who are l o Se rs

Meh. He was too Gurley.

He was never the best running back...lmao..dude was good for 2 years?..lmao
