The Los Angeles Rams have a bye this weekend but when the team goes to battle next week coach Sean McVay expects Todd Gurley will be able to go.

“I think it’s been making good progress. He’s feeling good,” McVay told reporters via Pro Football Talk. “He came in today and everything was positive with what we’re getting from [senior director of sports medicine and performance] Reggie [Scott]. We’ll take it a day at a time.

“I would be very, very surprised if he wasn’t going to be ready to go for the playoffs, but I think we’re going to be smart with whether he goes or not this week with those extra days. We’ll still continue to have that same rehab program. He’s taking steps in the right direction, and I would be very surprised if he’s not feeling good, ready to roll for our divisional game.”

Gurley was in a heated battle for the rushing title before he had to miss the last two weeks because of left knee inflammation. The Rams signed CJ Anderson to fill in while Gurley has been out and he has been quite impressive. Two weeks against the Arizona Cardinals he rushed for 167 yards and a touchdown, and in the last game San Francisco 49ers he rushed for 132 yards and a touchdown.

If for some reason Gurley isn't able to go it will be the Anderson show again and if he can play like he has the last two weeks the Rams should be in good shape.
