Kwon Alexander (knee) has surgery done

Tampa Bay middle linebacker Kwon Alexander tore an ACL four weeks ago and recently he had surgery this week, Dirk Koetter said last night on SiriusXM NFL Radio.

Fantasy Impact

Tampa Bay will have a decision to make on their 24-year-old linebacker who also missed half a season last year with a hamstring injury and four games of the 2015 season with a performance-enhancing-drug suspension. Alexander will be a free agent in 2019 and even as talented as he is when healthy he has to find a way to stay on the field for either Tampa Bay or any other NFL team to sign off on him. His IDP owners will want to likely stash him in dynasty leagues, but should probably consider trading him if an offer presents it'self. He has become a high-risk player to own. But in redrafts next year we again may see him drop like a rock as a flier pick at the end of drafts. His whole situation places him as a true "Hail Mary" for next season. Don't be surprised if Tampa Bay signs a veteran this offseason or goes looking at the rookie draft to help the team in a position they desperately need to focus on.
