Eh, ACL injuries these days aren't really that big of a deal, plenty of people come back in the 6-9 month range. PCL tear is 6-12 months depending on severity, plus he tore 2 other ligaments. Physically he should be okay in August for most activities (I hope anyway) but you have to factor in Chubb getting his timing down in a new system, getting in football shape, and taking some contact. Those things take time.

I don't know who you are or who you know so that's pretty irrelevant to me, I've seen way more people say things like this and end up being wrong rather than being right. No offense but that's just how I see it.

Wait, is this some sort of reverse psychology? Blink once if he is your uncle and twice if he isn't.

While I agree that ACL tears(and really any ligament tears) are not as bad as they used to be, ACL is still worse than a PCL. They both can be made worse when there is nerve damage present, but in Chubb's case there wasn't. The timetable Chubb has followed so far, the quickness of the surgery, the fact that he has been off crutches for a while now, etc. is proof that Chubb is ahead of the game.

Perfectly fine with me. I'm just letting you know what I know. When August rolls around you will see Chubb returning to full speed.
