Former Tennessee quarterback Hendon Hooker is still considered a promising prospect even as he recovers from a torn ACL, and he provided an optimistic update last week.
Hooker told The Athletic's Jeff Howe in a story published Tuesday that he expects to be cleared in about four months.
"I'm able to throw routes on air and stuff," Hooker said. "I'll just be a non-active at first in terms of real competition. I'm just going to continue to heal, take it day by day.
"I'll get cleared 100 percent by Sept. 1."
