  He returned last year. MarShawn Lloyd played in 12 games during South Carolina's 2021 season, his debut in college football after missing all of his true freshman year while recovering from a torn ACL. Why is this even a question? Lloyd was hurt, came back, played, end of story. Except he was wondering. Am I OK? Am I fully back? Do I want this badly enough? He couldn't definitively say no, but he wasn't risking a neck sprain while furiously nodding yes. The best Lloyd could figure it, he was lying to himself. "I feel like playing this game, you need confidence. You don't want to have to think about. On top of football with the plays, I was thinking about, "Can I do this?," Lloyd said. "That's a big no if you're playing a physical sport like this." >He was cleared medically, he passed every test.

But his situation was like that of the man he's most often compared to. Marcus Lattimore was at his physical peak when trying to recover from the devastating knee injury that ended his junior season at USC and led him to declare for the NFL, trying to salvage whatever was left of his career. He was in tip-top shape with the San Francisco 49ers, his knee was reconstructed, he was ready to play. Yet he knew what nobody else did. Lattimore just didn't feel right. The effort and desire to get back from the injury had clearly been proven. But whenever out there on the field, Lattimore simply didn't feel like he did before the injury. - The Post and Courier
