Yes he healed successfully but he aint gonna be a pro-bowler anytime soon.

Joe Montana was 37 years old when he went to KC. Hardly in his prime. Rivers for Brees- Brees had a bad shoulder injury and Rivers was a high pick, so it wasn't unreasonable for SD to let him walk. Both Brees and Rivers are performing at a very high level and are 30 or younger, so good for both teams.
And yeah, I mentioned Carlos Rogers. He recovered from a bad knee injury suffered much later in the season than Brady's, he plays a position requiring much more athleticism, and he recovered just fine. And he is playing at a pro-bowl level and could very well be in Hawaii this year.
