Recalling what went through his mind when he first got the news of the injury, the Raiders play maker feared he had laced up his boots for the last time.
"I did tear up a bit, I have to admit that," Campese said on Sterlo.
"It was definitely the toughest news I heard in my football career.
"Having to go through an ACL reconstruction twice, I knew how hard it was the first time… you even question to yourself in that 20 minute period whether you'll ever play again."
In searching for inspiration to make a successful return to the field, he needn't look far with North Queensland centre Brent Tate proof brighter days laid ahead for Campese.
"I did a bit of research on ACL's myself and been looking at players in similar situations as myself," he recalled.
"Brent Tate is one. He's played for Australia (and) Origin after three knees and Adrian Peterson from the NFL. He almost broke the all-time rushing record. You look at players like that who can come back and still be the best there ever was in the NFL so there's still some promising times ahead hopefully."
