Quote: "They're all different,'' Andrews said. "There's still a big spectrum in how they heal and how they come back . . . It's hard to predict recovery from an ACL surgery, and to say that we're getting them back quicker than we used to would be false information from my standpoint.''
Many don't come back at all. A 2010 study published in the American Journal of Sports Medicine found that only 63 percent of NFL athletes who had an ACL reconstruction returned to play another game. Roughly two out of three. And two years after ACL surgery, Andrews said, about 55 percent of NFL players are no longer playing in the league. For the majority, an ACL still is pretty synonymous with the end of a career.
"That's the real fact,'' Andrews said. "It's not a good injury to have regardless of how good a job we do.''Â

Here's an article from 2013 that quotes Dr. James Andrews, someone who has become well known in the sports world for his treatment of athletes:

Anyway, we should all root for Kaumatule and Harrison Phillips but keep in mind that this sort of injury is a big deal to recover from.
