I'm surprised at how little hope everyone has. Nick Chubb's first knee injury was completely devastating, his second was disgusting, and he's back in the NFL. Lost some burst, but at his age, that's not a surprise.

JK Dobbins' injury history is obscenely long; most notably, he blew a knee and an Achilles. He started most of the season. 

ACL's aren't the death sentence they used to be. Brooks is really young for an NFL player--he wasn't even born yet when Jake Delhomme took us to the Super Bowl. He'd be young for this upcoming draft class. There's a good shot he's back to contributing next year.

The flaw in this is that every athlete's body will respond differently. To think that he will bounce back and be just about like new is as incorrect to think he will never run again and a stiff breeze will send him to the ground.

There is really no way to predict what the outcome will be.

Can anyone answer if the medical team who worked on his ACL are the same group that fixed Thomas Davis. Did a great job on his tear using a different operation that Brooks had done and he came back a beast after 3 tears. Brooks will be 24 next season and had lots of potential.

Thomas Davis had his first ACL tear nearly 2 decades ago.

There is nothing similar about the group (I think Wattenberger did his back in the day) or the actual procedure. There have been lightyear advancement in ACL reconstruction.
