What this guy is saying is that we can't do the hands on test to see the degree of translation (the knee isn't a true hinge it does have some anterior and posterior translation to it) and then the rotational component as well.
In all likelyhood, it's a partial tear. And we just don't know until they can do a full battery of hands on test to see the extent.
He'll be back this season. It's the best news we could have gotten.

But this all makes sense as to why they are waiting and most def why they haven't put him on IR yet.
I mean I'm just being optimistic here, but he'll be back this season.

Regardless, thank you for the additional information. Have some rep.
