Could be that it is simply a tight hip, and the resulting lack of torque is being pushed through the knee instead. If you’re so tight you’re not flexible enough to get your knee to the ground, you end up putting some stress through the lateral part of the knee. Try doing an elevated pigeon to open up the hips and if need to take stress off the knee twist the torso away from the knee or have the foot off the table.
