He's just being careful to choose his words and not guarantee any timetable specifically when he'll be full go. Like he said that's still four months away till the season and he's already eight months removed from the injury. Nothing is set in stone on these things. He's not going to say "oh I'll be 100% recovered by training camp" and then if it's not true everybody thinks he's a douche. The team can't afford to overestimate anything like this. They're not going to overplay their hand on an injury rehab this critical. On top of that the fully recovered football functionality doesn't return 100% until another year after the first year back playing. He may go out and do everything this year well enough but probably won't feel completely 100% like himself till the following season.
