I get your point but zero means zero.

I'm not saying he can't recover and become a great player despite this. However a fully torn ligament will never heal 100% and will always be a liability.

It's a hard truth. Way too much evidence across multiple sports. Fucking sucks.

A fully torn ACL cannot heal at all, it has to be replaced. The stability of the graft depends on how the injury is managed for the first year to strengthen it.
