Torn LCL, possibly damage to the ACL - sidelined minimum of 6-8 months:
>>>Robert Griffin III will have surgery today to repair a torn ligament in his right knee, according to the Washington Post. Griffin has a torn lateral collateral ligament and the surgery will determine whether he has damaged the ACL, a source reported.
Baylor coach Art Briles confirmed the same details in a USA Today interview.
A torn LCL would require a rehabilitation period of several months, possibly extending into training camp and the start of next season. A torn ACL is a more severe injury, typically requiring nine to 12 months of recovery.<<<
