I also had basically the equivalent surgery done on my knee 25 years ago and have had no issues with it ever since. Everyone heals differently. It is very realistic that Brees has no lingering pain from the shoulder. Look how quickly he recovered from the thumb surgery. He clearly has the metabolism required for recovery.

You are focused on the injury and it doesn't always take injury to cause pain, discomfort, or a reduction in performance.

I have absolutely abused my body most of my life, baseball (10 years of catcher), football, military.. Knees and hips are fine. My Mother played zero sports and has had a knee and hip replaced.

Age is a b1tch.
