Do Knee Braces Work for Runners?

I’ve had a bit of a nagging knee issue lately. I think it might be a patellar tendonitis caused by a muscle weakness and/or sleepy glutes. So, as I'm trying to self rehab some of those muscle issues, I decided I'd try a couple of different styles of knee braces to see if they helped at all.
