(Aug. 5, 2007) -- NFL Network's Adam Schefter is reporting that Indianapolis Colts defensive tackle Anthony McFarland has sustained a season-ending knee injury.

According to sources, McFarland suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament. The Indianapolis Star is reporting McFarland's injury is believed to be to his patella tendon. Either injury likely would end McFarland's season.

The Colts have said McFarland is still undergoing an evaluation and his status has not yet been determined.

McFarland's injury comes one day after the Colts terminated the contract of defensive tackle Corey Simon.

The Colts acquired McFarland last October in a trade with Tampa Bay. They sent the Buccaneers a second-round draft pick.

I wonder what is up with Mathis and his MRI, if he misses time that Dline will be in real trouble.

They can't afford another defensive season like last, unless they think they can flip the switch again come playoff time..

haha, Tank Johnson came to mind too


defense is really struggling though, losing players in free agency and now depleted depth at D-Line.... may have to switch to a 3-4 defense by default


they were really building up a decent, not great but decent defense too towards the end of last year.... no chance they repeat if they have to resort back to the days of having to put up 35+ points a game
