1. Hobson reported the injury, not the doctors. So we really don't know what the doctor said regarding diagnosis, treatment, or prognosis. We don't really know if it is a partial tear of the RC or not. Which means we can't judge when he might return. 

2.  Look at Hobson's track record with bone bruises. He is just reporting what he is told, but what he is being told isn't correct. Braham had a tibial plateau fracture, not a bone bruise. Braham is on recorded stating Lewis knew Braham had a fracture, but he wasn't technically lying when he called it a bruise because Braham's leg was bruised from the fracture. Sorry, Richie, but Lewis deliberately lied to the media. 

3. Studies show patients immediately forget between 40-80% of what they are told by their doctor and half of what they do remember is incorrect. Meaning, at most, 10-30% of what the remember is correct while 10-30% is just flat out wrong.  Then the player or the coach has to communicate that to the media. This is probably why Dennard told one reporter he had a seperated shoulder and another he had a shoulder dislocation. Many people don't know those are very different injuries, although though sound similar. 

4. Did you watch the Hard Knocks seasons which featured the Bengals?  Did you see the one AJ injured his knee which was reported as a sprain. There is a scene where Marvin and Hugh are discussing AJ's injury. Marvin starts out calling it a "sprain" and by the end of the conversations says he is glad it is only a "contusion." I remember watching that and thinking, "Great. Lewis doesn't even know the difference between a sprain and a contusion." That's another part of the problem. 

So basically we don't really know what the injury is or when he should be back. But, you've already stated it is a torn rotator cuff and he will be back by camp because that is what Hobson reported. Now, if Ogbuehi isn't ready by camp it will be the doctors fault. But, really it is just bad communication. Just like what happened with Braham and Eifert. 
I guess I was just assuming he would be back.  Wish they were more transparent about injuries and such.
