"Schefter said it was torn this, torn that and blah blah. That's gonna be over 12 months, blah blah."

1. Schefter said torn ACL, MCL. DID NOT say torn PCL (just there is damage), nor was any meniscus torn (a doctor on YT said that had the meniscus been outright torn, it would've been reported with the MCL injury, as they are connected).
2. This is a guy who is a physical therapist and sits at home watching games; he has 0 to do with the league or any actual sources.
3. He has no precedent or track-record for these types of things.

The second link you posted is informative for precedent, however it points to the positive:


So mean time is 10 months (average time). If we go 10 months from now, we're in September.

Thus, yet again, barring no setbacks, he'll be back for the start of the season (whether he plays or not is a different story). If he is ahead of schedule, which I don't see why he wouldn't be (Carsone had his rehab accelerated), he could conceivably be back at OTAs in June.

Not worried and he doesn't need to be rushed back either.

Just watched it and it sounds lot better than that tweet I seen last night. Makes me feel a lot better! Thank you for the positive vibes :)
