That's because PCL stands for posterior cruciate ligament. A patellar tendon is the actual tendon that connects the kneecap to the shinbone. Ickey ruptured his patellar tendon, not a torn PCL. Hence why the comparison of a torn PCL and ACL is not relevant to Ickey's situation.

Per Person and the Athletic. Apologies if this was posted elsewhere, I did not see it.
It was not just an ACL tear, he dislocated his knee and had damage to other ligaments. There’s no telling whether he will be the same again in terms of health/speed at age 32.
I don’t think that’s CM punk and it wouldn’t make much storyline sense with punk beating Breakker last month to retain the title. My guess is Logan Paul, who on Friday’s show claimed that they should make sure bron wins the match…and just happened to be sweating already when he made his rumble entrance several minutes after the attack.
Even his most ardent supporters on here said that they’d take him if he was willing to stay as a backup or possibly in a bridge role. Most of the banter around this board was about how dumb Fitterer/Rhule were for giving up multiple picks for him and then giving him a 5th year option without even seeing him play a down for us.
That was a thing at one time. Unsurprisingly, it did not attract any more attention, and the league abandoned it. Kinda like NASCAR changing their postseason rules every year, yet no one cares
