How's your recovery?

no. at the time i was playing minor league baseball with the toronto blue jays. I started having a issue and i saw him the next day. Recovery was hard very hard. I came back throwing stronger and harder than ever. Usually in spring training i would come in throwing 87-90. I came in after surgery sitting 89-92 and sometimes 92-94. Whenever the season started i was consistantly low 90s and that year when i really tried to throw hard i was 95-96. My problem is i lost my confidence and sometimes i just couldnt find the strike zone. One thing i never in my life had a problem with.

Peterson probably used a cadaver tendon (if any ) to repair the ACL
Much less intrusion than useing a graff from yourself .
Mine looked like a severed telephone cable . They told me 6 months just to go to work . I was back in three .
But to play that position in the NFL ..incredible
