Defender Connor Lade is back in the game for the New York Red Bulls.
Lade returned to the Starting XI for New York after suffering an ACL tear in August 2016.
The defender returned to running in early December and worked out with the team throughout preseason and the beginning of the season.
The Homegrown defender made 20 appearances and 16 starts for New York in 2016 across all competitions.
He scored his first MLS goal on July 13, the game-winner against Orlando City SC. The defender has made more appearances than any other Homegrown Player in club history, with 73 regular season games played.
Lade signed with the Red Bulls in December of 2011, and had his contract extended prior to the start of the 2016 season.
