Hope so. WebMD says 1-3 months

Depending on what type of surgery.

"If you have a partial or total meniscectomy, you can expect your recovery to take about a month. If your meniscus was repaired, it may take as long as 3 months."

Do I Need Surgery for a Meniscus Tear?

A meniscus tear is a common knee injury. Most of the time, rest, ice, and pain meds are enough to help you feel better. But if they don’t work, you may need surgery. Find out what is involved and when you’ll be on the road to feeling better.

I bet we don’t see him out there earlier than the weekend of the Notre Dame game

This would mean missing the first 4 regular season games. There is talk of him

He might be benefitted by being out during the front of their brutal schedule
