He'll be like Frank - with two re-constructed ACLs.
Any updates?

Has he been operated on yet?

Unfortunately he tore his left knee ACL. He rushes off the right defensive end spot, which means he bends and plants on that left leg, which will have a reconstructed ACL.

Everyone points out AP as an example of coming back to a high level of play after an ACL injury but that's more the exception than the norm.
Missing him is really a big problem. Our pass rush and pressure is nowhere near what it was. Not even in the same category. This is not the same team like that.
Shanny just said his surgery was "extremely successful"

he rushes from both sides, and I don't notice a let-off when he's coming off the left after having the right knee rebuilt in HS.
Thank you, lord

Ahh he rushes from both sides...I can point out to dozens of football players that have come back just fine from a torn ACL.

Just pass rushers alone that come to mind are Von Miller (2013), JJ watt, TJ watt (twice), Chubb, Justin Houston, Clowney had microfracture surgery which can be worse etc...

here's some other dudes

As long as we don't ever use the doctor who did Trent Taylor's foot we should be good.

AP shredded his ACL and MCL, Bosa has a pretty standard/clean ACL tear by all accounts

I've never heard a doctor say that the surgeries didn't go well or weren't successful. Unless the guy dies on the operating table.
