Kelyn Rowe missed two months of action last season while recovering from a knee sprain. So when the midfielder picked up a knee injury in training two weeks ago, many fans feared the worst.
But this time, Rowe sustained an injury to his left knee—not the right knee he injured eight months ago. The ensuing MRI showed only minor structural damage. And now, Rowe is already on the verge of making a return.
“[Kelyn’s] progressing really well,” Revolution Head Coach Brad Friedel said on Tuesday. “He’s doing a pretty hard dose of fitness today and we’ll see what the reaction is.
