He would be allowed to apply for a medical redshirt but the only reason to do that is if you are trying to get a 6th season of eligibility which would mean he misses a 2nd season for some reason. All players have 5 years from when they enter school to play 4 years in a sport. It doesn't matter what the reason is they are sitting out during that extra year. You also don't apply for a medical redshirt until the players has completed 5 years.
This made me wonder about walk-ons. Do coaches ever tend to never allow a walk on into a game for one season just to keep the option of having them for a 5th year of practice? Seems to me that would be advantageous to have 5th year walk-ons on your practice squad if they choose to come back.
