My character needs an injury to his leg that requires surgery (and hopefully some metal - screws, a plate, etc.). It needs to be something incurred from a bad football tackle (he plays quarterback), and he needs to be in surgery the next day rather than wait around. If it can mess up his knee and require additional surgery later, even better.
I've played around with ACL injuries, fractures, etc., but my betas want me to be more specific.
