I agree with you. From what I've seen in the past, most players can come back from the injury but most are not the same player. There are exceptions and I think that's why Dallas is bringing him in next week to get a look for themselves. For his case, and the Cowboys, I hope he's the same player but I'm not getting my hopes up yet on this guy.

In terms of return to play, drafted athletes returned at a rate of 61.54 percent (n = 40/65). The return rate was lower for undrafted athletes, at 52.78 percent (n = 19/36). Of the rookies with AT ruptures, 42.11 percent returned to play in the NFL, whereas 62.20 percent of veteran players with ruptures came back after injury. The average draft pick of those with a career-ending injury was 106. Those who continued to play after injury averaged a draft pick of 93.
Jesus, bro. We haven't even interviewed him yet and you're already hating.
