Surely a ruptured ACL is longer than 2 months out? Another rest of the season job?

Technically you don't have to have surgery - there are non-invasive treatments involving intense physical therapy. And apparently, there are Hall of Fame NFL players without an ACL in one knee. But it is very risky - the ACL provides stability to the knee, and you risk an even more serious injury like meniscus damage if you opt for no surgery. If you do have surgery, it is normally 3 months before you can start any sort of running and 6 months before high stress sports can even be considered.
 
ACL rupture recovery times depend on the individual. How well they look after themselves, doing their rehab every day etc...

He could be cycling and swimming in just a few weeks. Chances are it'll be around 6 months+.
 
Ffs typical city, why can we never have our first choice 11 out for more than a few weeks..
