Spurrier is not worried (from the Yahoo article linked at the bottom of the screen):
Lattimore has run strongly in fall camp, looking like the player who routinely broke tackles and cut to the right holes for big yards. He and Spurrier understand, though, that people will keep wondering about the knee until he handles those first few hits against the Commodores.
Spurrier has seen little evidence Lattimore, a projected first-round NFL draft pick, is hesitating or protecting the knee when he runs.
Spurrier recalled watching practice video this summer and seeing three defenders waiting to wrap up Lattimore.
''He just lowered the pads and powered right through them,'' Spurrier said.

Do you think he'll lower his CPG?

Yeah Lattimore is a workhouse and every time the number of carries Lattimore receives, and how much he may receive after this injury, is called into question there is always a report titled Lattimore: "I want the ball"
Will he get less carries? Maybe, but we have solid depth behind him plus Shaw likes to tote the rock himself.

Doesn't matter if Spurrier is worried or not. Lattimore is the one carrying the ball.
