I think week one is far too optimistic. 

Having him play anytime in September is a huge victory for how bad that injury looked.

Ready was probably strong wording.  He should be on the plus side of the recovery process.  Taking more reps and possibly getting game time.

Just trying to calm some rustled jimmies.

Some even better developments on a major bullet dodged. According to the RR, Vernon Butler just has a sprained knee:

Coule see him back on the field by week 1 if this is true.

we got lucky. Gotta take care of it though and make sure he's 100% before coming back

Nice. 2-3 weeks is a relatively mild sprain at that.

[Jeremy Igo]

Doubtful. 

 

A guy his size 4-6 is more likely.

Don't rush him back. Not with SF and Buffalo up first
