Georgia confirms Gurley suffered torn left ACL, surgery date not yet determined
The University of Georgia confirmed running back Todd Gurley has a torn ACL on Sunday and will require surgery.
Gurley suffered the injury during Saturday's game against Auburn, his first game back since being suspended four games after accepting money for signed memorabilia and other items while at Georgia.
Gurley also took to Twitter for the first time since Aug. 29 and left a short message for all his followers:
No Pain, No Gain....

Within the last two weeks Georgia had raised Gurley's insurance policy to $10 million in coverage, according to ESPN's Darren Rovell.
Gurley would be payed $5 million for total disability if he got injured and was never able to play another snap of football. He'd also get $5 million in loss of value insurance, which would take effect if the running back injured himself and slipped in the draft.
The insurance was reportedly raised during Gurley's four-game suspension and cost the university between $50-60,000.
A date for Gurley's upcoming surgery has not yet been announced.
