Not sure he'll ever get it back to where it was.
In 2016, he messed up his throwing shoulder against Kansas and played a huge chunk of the season with a bad throwing shoulder. Most of us expected him to miss at least 2-3 games. He also had a broken wrist during the 2016 season.
He kept playing through these injuries and I'm hoping he will finally get a chance to protect his body for a year, focus on the playbook, focus on fixing his footwork/mechanics, etc. Then come out in 2018 recharged physically and far more prepared to deal with NFL challenges.

There's another Brett Favre similarity...
