Henson's Injury

CPayne.. the pros usually have it done right away. Sports players are in top form and have top care, these guys get it done quick. I remember Brady having his done very quickly, and the same with Welker. As in quick within a matter of days if not hours.

Still the swelling has to go down before they can do anything is the point, and sometimes that can take days depending on the severity of the tear.

Right, world class athletes aren't immune to swelling.

This is a quote from when Carlos Rogers tore his ACL three years ago...
"He will undergo surgery when the swelling subsides in a few weeks and Gibbs will consider signing..."

Tom Brady tore his ACL 9/7 and had surgery 10/6. Wes Welker tore his 1/3 and had surgery 2/2.
