Consensus timeline for Nabers' return is about Week 3, with ESPN's Jordan Raanan hinting it could be Week 1 or a short stint on PUP in worst-case outcome. He needed a cleanup procedure for a meniscus that was locking up in addition to rehabbing his torn ACL. Multiple issues add to the risk, but Nabers is a 22-year-old world-class athlete. If out Weeks 1-3, replacements should be easy to find when the rest of the league is healthy. Players like this aren't immediately themselves, but after a month or so, they often are 80-90%.
