Actually listening to the Opening Drive this morning Amani Toomer was discussing that. He had an inconclusive MRI done on his knee, and the only way to figure out if there was damage done to the ACL, MCL, and PCL was to have exploratory surgery. Once they got in there they found his ACL to be torn. At which time he had to have reconstructive surgery done on the knee.
The fact that it is the same knee from 2009 is what is making it difficult to determine the extent of the damage. I would be surprised if we got the results of the surgery today.
