Medicine and surgery has advanced a lot. Your recovery timeline is a bit off.bbgun said:Since torn ACL rehab is usually 9 to 12 months, does anyone think Bill will keep a roster spot open for almost half the season till he returns?
Now that is correct. But in fairness it was not so long ago that this injury was a full 12 months at best and usually 24 to get back fully. Isn't modern medicine wonderful?abersonc said:actually 8 months would be an extremely long rehab. 4-6 months is normal. maybe he misses minicamp. but he's ready to go for TC.
9-12 is totally off.
