Im no doctor but that sounded like a dumb idea. 

It's in his kicking leg. The ACL primarily stabilizes your knee rotationally. There's not much rotational knee stability needed in a punter's kicking leg. It'd be much more problematic in that regard if it was in his plant leg. Though, the ACL also prevents hyperextension which could definitely be problematic in the kicking leg. I can see what he thought he might be able to play through it and get the surgery done immediately after the season and end up missing no playing time. He decided to give it a go and saw that it wasn't gonna work.

      Them playing behind a couple more seasoned guys until they get familiar with coverage and pace of play is a good thing though. We really can use them to spell the other guys, and in situational ball especially with Ransom on possible run/blitzing downs.

      I think completion percentage is a bit of a overinflated stat for a qb too. People place to much stock into it. So many factors to consider with it : receivers, how many attempts are made deep, the defense etc all play a roll in it. When it’s considerably low 50% or less the QB accuracy can come into question. But I don’t think it’s necessarily one of the better percentages to put so much importance into for that position. General effectiveness is far more indicative of the QB you have. First downs, 3rd and 4th down conversions, points scored and clutch plays IMO is how you grade a QB. Always bothered the poo out of me how people downed Cam for his completion percentage and that’s what they used to disregard him as an all time great. Dude damn near averaged 3tds to 1 turnover a game and was an obvious difference maker for us.
