There have been others injured after him that have already appeared on the IR. More medical confirmation? Sliver of hope? Inside skinny?

I'd like to be optimistic, but I don't see how he could return to full form this season. I suppose they could put him on that new IR where he can be activated mid-season, right?

What exactly are we hoping for? A 4 month turnaround on an ACL surgery?

Has there been an official release confirming it was an ACL?

If we wait he can be put on IR-Designated to Return. Iirc he has to be on the final 53 for at least a day to do that.

But this will likely depend on what other doctors say and how his surgery/rehab goes.

And I believe he can still go on PUP since this was pre training camp (and maybe from PUP to IR-DtR).

Point is there is zero reason to rush him on IR with all our options still open.

Still a glimmer of hope I would think that he could return if we get in the playoffs and make a run, but would think they would rather not risk it and get him fully healed as possible for '17.
