Rehab has little to do with this. Being 23 has little to do with this. A tendon injury is much, much different than a broken bone or pulled muscle. Especially one like the patella which has a tremendous amount of strain on it even on a normal sized human being.
He will have troubles with it the rest of his life. I was back running 6 months after surgery with a lot of pain. After about a year the everyday pain was gone. That was 7 years ago. On occasion it will still swell up with no warning.
