Denver Broncos inside linebacker Alex Singleton underwent successful ACL surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache in Los Angeles on Tuesday.
After the surgery, Singleton shared a positive update on social media.
“Road to recovery starts now!” Singleton wrote on his Instagram and X pages. “Thank you everyone for the positive vibes and prayers today. Going to attack this like everything else full speed! Go Broncos!!”
Singleton, who will turn 31 in December, tore his ACL during a 26-7 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 3. The veteran linebacker did not realize the severity of his injury and played the final 49 snaps on defense.
After the game, Singleton reported a sore knee and tests revealed his torn ACL. The linebacker now begins the road to recovery with a goal of returning in time for the 2025 season next fall.
In the meantime, the Broncos have turned to Justin Strnad to fill in at linebacker, starting next to Cody Barton in Singleton’s old position.
