""Just take it slow," Revel said, still coming to grips with the fact that he was just selected. "Take your time. Go at your own pace and learn how to maneuver and go through life and ask questions." Seven months later, and more than 14 months after he tore his ACL, Revel will be eligible to make that long-awaited NFL debut when the Cowboys play in Las Vegas against the Raiders on Monday night."
"He believed that, too, saying after he was selected that he thought he was the top corner in the draft, only falling because of the injury he sustained three games into his final season at East Carolina. Now that the opportunity to play has arrived, Revel hasn't strayed from the outlook he had on draft night. He was asked on Friday if the recovery process took longer than he expected."
Shavon Revel Jr. will be eligible to play in Week 11 after more than 14 months sidelined by an ACL tear. Revel was selected in the third round and entered the NFL believing he had first-round talent before the injury shortened his final collegiate season. Revel advised his younger self to take things slow and focus on learning, and he has approached recovery by concentrating on each day and working hard. Revel has been a full participant in recent practices. The Cowboys expect him to be part of defensive reinforcements returning from knee injuries, improving team health.
