George Iloka Suffers Torn ACL In Practice
4 years agoMinnesota Vikings veteran safety and special teams contributor George Iloka (knee) suffered a torn ACL in practice on Wednesday and will undergo season-ending surgery, according to a league source. Iloka was put on Injured Reserve on Thursday after just signing with the team in September. His injury leaves rookie Josh Metellus as the only safety on the active roster behind Harrison Smith and Anthony Harris. The 30-year-old Iloka had just six tackles (five solo) and one tackle for a loss in four games for Minnesota this season, but it's more bad news for a 1-5 Vikings whose defense ranks 28th in the league with 3.8 fantasy points per game.
