Well I read he broke part of his meniscus too, and that it's not that easy injurie because menisci can't regenerate that easy.Reports are stating it was an MCL injury. MCL injuries don't take nearly as long to recover from compared to ACL injuries, as an example. They also don't carry nearly the same long term risks.
Had a mate who tore his MCL. He was back playing football 8 weeks later, without professionally rehabbing it etc. Granted he didn't need surgery for it, but the surgery doesn't add that much to the recovery and Jesus is surrounded by the best physical therapists in the world.
I know "knee ligament injury" sounds scary, but there's genuinely a world of difference between an ACL and MCL tear.
