  • In line to play Sunday

    Crosby, who is officially questionable for Sunday's matchup versus Denver due to a knee injury, is expected to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Crosby has been dealing with a knee issue for much of the season, but he's yet to miss a game. However, his status seemed to be in more peril than usual this week after he logged a DNP both Thursday and Friday. Nonetheless, it sounds like Crosby is going to give it a go against the Broncos despite the 2-10 Raiders having already been eliminated from playoff contention. Crosby has 8.0 sacks on the campaign and will be looking to reach the fourth double-digit sack season of his seven-year NFL…read more

  • Dealing with knee injury

    Crosby (knee) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Crosby dealt with a knee injury during last week's practices, but he looked just fine on the field in Week 13 versus the Chargers, playing every defensive snap and posting nine tackles (six solo) and 2.0 sacks.

    Crosby posted nine tackles (six solo), including 2.0 sacks and four total tackles for a loss, during the Raiders' 31-14 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.

    Analysis: Sunday was Crosby's second multi-sack game of the season, as the veteran pass rusher got to Justin Herbert for six- and two-yard sacks in the second and third quarter, respectively. Crosby's 8.0 sacks through 12 regular-season games surpasses his total from 2024, and he is on pace to reach double-digit sacks for the fourth time in his seven-year NFL career.

    Crosby recorded eight tackles (five solo), including five tackles for loss, in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Browns.

    Analysis: Though the Raiders suffered a disappointing defeat, Crosby wasn't at fault, as he logged a season high in both tackles and tackles for loss.

    Analysis: The defensive end played on 65 defensive snaps in Monday's loss to the Cowboys, recording five tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, and a forced fumble. Crosby wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, so it's possible his limited participation Thursday was just a precaution.

    Analysis: Crosby sustained a knee injury during the second quarter of the Raiders' Week 7 loss to the Chiefs. He had extra time to rest thanks to the Week 8 bye, and his ability to practice Thursday indicates that he is trending toward being available for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Crosby has spent his entire career with the franchise after being drafted by the Raiders in the fourth round of the 2019 NFL Draft, and he's accumulated 63.5 career regular-season sacks, including 4.0 this season.

  • Removal from Week 7 precautionary

    Crosby's (knee) removal from Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Chiefs is viewed as a precautionary measure, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Crosby left in the second quarter of Sunday's game, and with the Raiders facing a large deficit, the decision was made to keep the star pass rusher on the sideline. The Raiders are on a bye for Week 8, so even if Crosby's injury is considered more serious than initially expected, he'll have extra time to heal and should be ready to go for a Nov. 2 matchup with the Jaguars.

  • Unlikely to return vs. Kansas City

    Crosby (knee/back) is doubtful to return to Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Crosby suffered the injuries in the second quarter, and the veteran pass rusher is unlikely to be cleared to return to Sunday's game. If he is in fact done for the day, he'll finish with three tackles (one solo). Charles Snowden and Tyree Wilson will see more snaps on defense while Crosby is out of the game.

    Crosby (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Crosby missed the final five games of the Raiders' 2024 campaign due to an ankle injury, but his full practice participation Wednesday suggests he's already moved past the issue. The Eastern Michigan product inked a three-year, $106.5 million extension to keep him in Las Vegas in early March after posting 59.5 sacks across six seasons with the team. Now back to full health, Crosby is expected to remain one of the NFL's top defensive playmakers in 2025.

    Analysis: Crosby's new deal contains $91.5 million in guaranteed money and keeps him on the books through 2029 while making him the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history. Before an ankle injury sidelined him for the Raiders' final four contests of 2024, Crosby was a paragon of durability, as he had previously never missed a game during his six-year professional career. Since he entered the league in 2019, Crosby has posted 59.5 sacks, the fifth-most in the NFL over that stretch.

    Analysis: This was a foregone conclusion, as Crosby underwent a tightrope procedure Tuesday to address an ankle injury he aggravated in Week 14.

  • Undergoing tightrope surgery

    Crosby (ankle) is scheduled to undergo a tightrope procedure Tuesday to address the Grade 3 sprain he had aggravated Week 14, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Crosby initially injured his ankle back in Week 2, but the issue worsened in Week 14 to the point of him requiring season-ending surgery. Reed reports that Crosby's recovery timetable could play out in a number of ways, but that the standout pass rusher is expected to be fully healthy to begin the 2025 campaign. Crosby's 2024 season thus concludes with 12 appearances, in which he racked up 45 tackles (28 solo), 7.5 sacks and five passes defensed.

    Analysis: Crosby has logged back-to-back DNPs to start the week as he continues to work his way through an ankle injury.

    Analysis: Crosby missed the first game of his career in Week 4 after sustaining an ankle injury the week prior, and following Wednesday's DNP, it appears he could be in jeopardy of missing even more time. The All-Pro pass rusher will likely need to upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday in order to suit up for the Raiders' Week 5 matchup against the Broncos.

  • Status up in the air

    Head coach Antonio Pierce said Monday that Crosby's (ankle) status for Week 5 will depend on practice this week, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Crosby missed the first game of his career this past Sunday, bringing an 86-game active streak to an end. The veteran pass rusher was unable to practice during Week 4 prep, so he'll likely need to get on the field in some capacity this week to have a chance to play against the Broncos this Sunday.

  • Ruled out versus Cleveland

    Crosby (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns, Levi Edwards of the Raiders' official site reports.

    Analysis: It will be Crosby's first missed game of his six-year career, snapping a streak of 86 consecutive contests. It's a mammoth loss for a Las Vegas defense lacking star power. With Malcolm Koonce (knee, IR) already done for the year, 2023 first-rounder Tyree Wilson is going to have to step up versus Cleveland. Janarius Robinson and Charles Snowden will also see expanded roles off the edge.

Both health concerns plagued Crosby at various points during the 2023 season, but it wasn't evident in his production. He suited up for all 17 of the Raiders' games and set career highs in tackles (90) and sacks (14.5), giving him a strong argument for NFL Defensive Player of the Year honors after he was announced as one of five finalists for the award last week.

  • Status up in air for Sunday

    Crosby (knee) is officially questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

    Analysis: Crosby bounced back from a DNP Thursday with a full practice to close out the week. His status Sunday will likely depend on how he is feeling closer to kickoff. Tyree Wilson would be the likely candidate to replace Crosby at defensive end if he cannot give it a go.

  • Downgraded to DNP on Thursday

    Crosby (knee) did not participate in Thursday's practice, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Analysis: It's a downgrade for Crosby after he was limited Wednesday, so this bears watching Friday and into the weekend. The potential of Crosby being out against Justin Herbert and the Chargers would definitely be felt Sunday if he can't go.

  • Logs sack in loss

    Crosby recorded three tackles (one solo) and one sack in Sunday's 23-18 loss to the Steelers.

    Analysis: Besides his sack, which brought his total up to two on the year, Crosby was relatively quiet. His low production came even though he was on the field for 57 defensive snaps (95 percent) plus five on special teams (17 percent). He will look to get more active in Week 4 when the Raiders take on the Chargers.

  • Decent showing in blowout loss

    Crosby recorded seven tackles in Sunday's 38-10 loss at Buffalo.

    Analysis: In a game where Las Vegas as a whole struggled to do pretty much anything, Crosby wasn't able to get to the quarterback as a pass rusher. However, he did partially make up for that in IDP leagues by posting a solid tackle total. Game script should be a bit more favorable in Week 3 when Crosby and the Raiders host Pittsburgh.

  • Records sack in Week 1 victory

    Crosby notched five tackles (two solo), including a sack, in Sunday's 17-16 win over the Broncos.

    Analysis: Crosby's first-down sack just past the midway point of the second quarter ultimately helped stall a Broncos drive, as they were forced to punt three plays later. Crosby will steer the Raiders' pass rush again in Week 2 versus the Bills, while fellow defensive end Chandler Jones (personal) possibly remains away from the team.

  • Headed back to Pro Bowl

    Crosby racked up five tackles (three solo) and a sack in the Raiders' season finale against the Chiefs, finishing his 2022 campaign with 89 total tackles (58 solo), 12.5 sacks, four passes defensed and three forced fumbles in 17 games.

    Analysis: Crosby earned his second consecutive Pro Bowl nod on the back of his 12.5-sack output, though he also beat his previous single-season high of 56 tackles by 33 takedowns in 2022. The Eastern Michigan product signed a four-year extension with Las Vegas last offseason, so he's slated to remain a leader on this defense in 2023.

  • Adds 1.5 sacks Sunday

    Crosby recorded four tackles (three solo) and 1.5 sacks during Sunday's 40-34 overtime win over the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Being one of the few defensive linemen in the league who can play every defensive snap, not to mention in an overtime game, Crosby logged 1.5 sacks in Week 12 and now has 4.5 across his last four contests. The 25-year-old is well on track to make his second consecutive Pro-Bowl appearance, as he's already collected career highs in both tackles (67) and sacks (10.5) in just 11 games played.

    Crosby recorded 10 tackles (four solo), including one sack, during Sunday's 25-20 defeat versus the Colts.

    Analysis: With linebackers Denzel Perryman (hip) inactive and Divine Deablo (forearm) on IR, Crosby logged double-digit stops for the first time since the team's season opener. The star pass rusher also logged his first sack since Week 5, increasing his season total to seven through nine games.

    Analysis: Crosby has now played at least 90 percent of the Raiders' defensive snaps in all seven games this season.

    Analysis: Crosby was limited in practice Tuesday, so a bump up to a full practice Wednesday should put him in the clear to compete Saturday against the Browns. The third-year pro has 39 tackles (21 solo), five sacks and four passes defensed on the season.

Nonetheless, the defensive end has played at least 68 percent of the Raiders' defensive snaps in every game this year and produces solid enough tackling numbers to be worthy of consideration in deeper IDP leagues.

    Analysis: Crosby had Lamar Jackson's number in Week 1, accounting for two of the Raiders' three sacks.

  • Recovering from two surgeries

    Analysis: Crosby started a full 16-game slate in 2020 despite dealing with labrum and hand injuries, and he's now facing a four-month recovery timetable after undergoing procedures to address those issues.
