a second drive member configured to be received through the second housing channel, the second drive member having a proximal end with a second engagement surface configured to be rotationally driven, and a distal end configured to engage the implant;
a tether having a distal end configured to couple to the intervertebral implant, wherein the tether is rotatable relative to the housing,
wherein the first drive member is configured to transition between a first position and a second position, the first drive member coupled to the tether in the first position such that rotation of the first drive member causes rotation of the tether relative to the housing, the first drive member decoupled from the tether in the second position such that the drive member is rotatable relative to the tether, and
wherein the distal end of the first drive member is distal to the distal end of the tether in the second position.
