Another thing people are overlooking is that Smith also tore his LCL, meaning it's a tissue injury as well. So that's two major injuries instead of one. From what I've read from athletes, when tearing both of those it can take up to 8-10 months to even start practicing
His knee is going to be scrutinized every step of the way. The LCL tear has more long term questions than the ACL.
I'm unclear as to what you mean by the LCL tear is also a tissue injury and why it has more long term questions than an ACL tear.
