Knee joint intergrity is important to supporting range of motion and functionality. The hamstrings counterbalance the quadraceps and are an intergrated part of the knee joint, as are other muscles attaching in other planes of movement.

Id bring the kinetic chain into this question.
Injuring one part of the chain hurts others. Knee dysfunction will often lead to ankle and hip problems.
The hamstring will be especially important to ACL injuries, because it is on the opposite side of the body and may be used as an antagonist.
Activating that part of the body means that the ACL could be stimulated to stretch and shorten, but use the hamstring to lead it.
