ILB Brian Asamoah II announces he has successful surgery

After an injury-plagued season, Minnesota Vikings inside linebacker Brian Asamoah II announced on Twitter that he had successful surgery. Asamoah didn’t announce what he had surgery on and when it occurred but the fact that it was successful is important.

Asamoah did miss significant time during the season with an ankle injury so it’s likely that it was the same injury. Even though it’s likely, it’s not something we can confirm 100% at this time.

It wasn’t a great year for Asamoah. He only saw the field on defense in six games with a paltry 36 snaps accrued. It was a far cry from the 121 snaps he saw in 2022, with the majority of them coming in the final four games.

In 2023, Asamoah only had three tackles but he did get one pressure on just three pass rush reps. Hopefully, it will be a better year in 2024 for Asamoah, as they will need him to step up with the linebacker room clearing out.
