He had an mcl grade 1 that did not require surgery
from what I've been reading that should heal in 2-3 weeks. He had an LCL requiring surgery. that usually takes 4-8 weeks to heal from what I have been reading.

I think he doesn't want to rush back, and hurt his future..Give it a year, and come back full force.

I bet he's back for bama maybe sooner. In most cases these type of injuries heal in a month!

May be why CLM keeps playing Josh D instead of moving people around. He plans on Faulk being back

I have been wanting to start a thread like this for a while. If he was out for the season we would know, much like alabamas rb required season ending surgery.

He will be back.

Thank you. That's what I've been told.

He and blue could come back at the same time.

This. From what I read last, they were going to wait 4 weeks and then determine if MCL surgery is needed. If it is, then yeah he's undoubtedly out.

Coaches should never reveal the extent of an injury.

That's just my opinion.
