Nobody seems to have said exactly what the problem is, so hard to say I suppose
But based on a random google search, according to the tinternet:
Those patients with minor lateral meniscus tears that are managed conservatively can usually expect to return to sport or activity in approximately 2 - 4 weeks. For moderate tears that are managed conservatively return to sport or activity may take 4 - 6 weeks or longer.
Minor lateral meniscus tears that are managed surgically can sometimes return to sport or activity within 4 ? 6 weeks, although most surgical repairs (especially when the meniscus tear is moderate to severe) will usually require a rehabilitation period of 6 - 8 weeks or longer. If there is damage to other structures in the knee, such as the anterior cruciate ligament, rehabilitation may require an extended period. It is important that lateral meniscus injuries are managed appropriately, as inappropriate treatment may lead to the development of early knee osteoarthritis.
So in my utterly and totally inexpert opinion, would guess he'll be out for 6 ish weeks in total, which means he probably has another 4 weeks to go.
