Associated Press—September 4, 2009
Alford had surgery on Friday to repair a partially torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.
Alford was hurt two weeks ago in a preseason game in Chicago against the Bears, tearing his medial collateral ligament and partially tearing his ACL in the third quarter.
Dr. Russell Warren re-examined the knee on Friday and decided to reconstruct the ACL in a procedure at Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City.
