From the article

he is coming back from an ACL tear - at least it was his left instead of his right, which he tore twice in college. Penix said he is ahead of where doctors thought he would be in recovery at the start of camp, but it could still be until late August before he is fully cleared.

Penix ahead of ACL recovery schedule but faces late-August clearance timeline.

Penix is recovering from an ACL tear (left knee, not right like his college injuries) and said he is ahead of schedule in recovery at the start of camp, but could still need until late August for full clearance. New head coach Kevin Stefanski has no loyalty to the 2024 first-round pick, making Tagovailoa the favorite despite Penix's recovery progress.
