Gamecocks RB Marcus Lattimore Says Doctors 'Will Be Shocked' By His Recovery

Three months after undergoing reconstructive knee surgery, running back Marcus Lattimore says NFL doctors who examine him at this week's combine "will be shocked, I can tell you that."

The former South Carolina star, who appeared on the school's weekly radio program Inside the Roost, said he's way ahead of schedule in his recovery. He won't do physical drills at the combine, but said he'll start running Monday and then “it's game on.â€￾

The school's all-time leader with 41 career touchdowns and 38 rushing scores, Lattimore sustained a gruesome injury Oct. 27 against Tennessee, tearing three ligaments and dislocating his right knee.

I wouldn't mind at all if the 49ers picked him up in a mid-round....

 

A Peterson did it so why not him?

 

And Jamal Charles

 

this guy could be a steal in the draft

 

SF can allow him to sit a year. Just until he is 100%

 

Would like to see the Saints take a chance on him. Not impressed with Mark Ingram at all and Lattimore fits in with our system better anyway.

 

i think he'll end up being a late first or second round pick....i love him personally

 

Dude is a beast. He is a three down back. Don't find too many of those anymore. Hope he can make it back all the way.

 

Absolutely.

 

Titans talking about adding a RB to complement Chris Johnson. I like Lattimore for that job.
