What way is the knee joint poorly protected and thus especially vulnerable to injuries?

The knee is made up of connective tissues and the end of long bones. The ligaments and tendons that connect to the knee are not protected by any muscles. Simply twisting the knee in an unusual direction can cause any of those tendons and ligaments to tear. Too much of one activity may also cause injury to the knee. In addition to unusual movements, the knee can be injured by a direct blow. The is common in contact sports such as football. If a player is tackled from the outside, the inside ligament can easily be torn because it is not protected.
