All the while, I'm seeing REAL football players getting back on the field (although, at reduced capacity) and playing again after surgery. WTH?

I wonder if the surgery treatment has progressed even more so since '96?
Maybe at that time, that was the case. Surgical techniques have improved a long time since then and are improving every day.

I had the same problem as an NFL Player. In 4 weeks he was up and running. Well, they have all sorts of intense therapy that we don't have and they are willing to put up with some issues. Look at say Troy Aikman. How many concussions did he have and still play. You wanna? Not me .

Just as a SWAG, I'd say "yes".
