And nothing hurts more than that in my experience. SOAB.

I didn't have surgery and opted for weeks of excruciating physical therapy.

Diggs has a lot of work ahead.

...he had partial tears of the MCL & PCL, too.
PT won't be effective in getting him back on the field with zero stability for quite a few weeks.
Surgery is almost certain, unfortunately for him.

Diggs may have a permanent limp at best and may have to retire at worst.

Guys have come back from that surgery, but not all of them to be sure.

That sucker smarted a bit. And the surgery hurt even more.

I heard them pop as it happened. I was generally OK that day (I could walk but couldn't ski, so had to take a snow mobile down the hill), but holy hell did it hurt the next day. Fortunately, I didn't need surgery.
