For those who I’m sure have concerns about Juan’s future... take solace in the fact that Tyrann Mathieu has previously torn both of his ACLs, and Eddie Jackson tore one of his in college before entering the draft (and he became the league’s highest paid safety today).

It may not be September 2020 when he’s back to where he was exactly, but he will be back there eventually.

Here is what Tyrann Mathieu told me regarding #Chiefs S Juan Thornhill when I asked him on Thursday. The previous thought was Thornhill would be ready for training camp. It won't be the case with the second-year safety headed to PUP. pic.twitter.com/dVokjw7HGw

I guess he's been put on the PUP list?

Damn, we really need him in there if we have a season.

As I've been saying all year, it is no surprise that he's starting off the season on the PUP list.

He tore his ACL on December 29, which typically take a year to heal and most guys need two years to return to 100%.

Of course, it would be awesome if he could come back earlier but I think it'll be mid-season before he's allowed to return.

Hopefully, he'll be at least ready by the playoffs, if not before.

Every player is different, and luckily Juan has youth on his side. We’ll see him before mid season.

We need Clay to weigh in on this, especially wrt to the likelihood of there being a season.

Adrian Peterson started at RB approximately 9 months after tearing his ACL (and had an MVP season). That's about the shortest timeframe possible for full return.

AD is just a freak of nature.

AD is his nick name. It stands for All Day.

I think Jerry Rice did something similar. Came back in the same season, caught a TD and messed it up again.

#Chiefs have placed S Juan Thornhill (knee) and OL Martinas Rankin (kneed) on the physically unable to perform list. Rookie WR Aleva Hifo activated from the COVID-19 reserve list.

We released him one minute after we activated him to get back to the 80 limit.
