Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Raiders Edge Maxx Crosby needs arthroscopic surgery on the ankle injury that has already knocked him out for Week 15. Crosby's expected to miss the rest of the season.
The Raiders have ruled Edge Maxx Crosby out for Monday night's game against the Falcons because of an ankle injury. That likely means more playing time for Edge K'Lavon Chaisson, but no other Raider can come close to replacing Crosby's impact. His absence makes Vegas far less attractive as a sneaky DST play. We'll see about Crosby's status for Week 16.
Raiders Edge Maxx Crosby (ankle) is active for today's game against the Broncos, as expected. LB Divine Deablo (oblique) is inactive. It'll be his third straight missed game. With third LB Luke Masterson landing on IR this week, Vegas will be down to some combo of Amari Burney and Amari Gainer vs. Denver. Deablo seems to be trending toward a Week 6 return.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Raiders Edge Maxx Crosby is expected to play today against the Broncos. He's officially questionable after managing just one limited practice this week on a high ankle sprain. Crosby played through the issue two weeks ago before missing Week 4. HC Antonio Pierce said this week that they have to protect Crosby from himself with these injury decisions at times. Early word that he'll return makes this seem like a better than game-time-decision situation. I bumped Crosby back up the Week 5 DL rankings some, though he remains short of his usual position. There's risk both to playing him and sitting him in IDP lineups this week.
Raiders Edge Maxx Crosby revealed after Sunday's loss to the Panthers that he's playing through a significant ankle injury. He was officially questionable for the game but expected to play -- and did.
Raiders Edge Maxx Crosby, DT Christian Wilkins, and Edge Tyree Wilson are active for today's game against the Panthers. Crosby and Wilson were expected to play, whereas Wilkins reportedly looked more questionable. That could limit his snap count vs. usual, but Wilkins should probably be in most IDP lineups as planned at this stage in the Week 3 slate.
The Raiders list Edge Maxx Crosby as questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers, but it doesn't sound like you need to worry about his availability. According to Levi Damien of Raiders Wire, HC Antonio Pierce said Friday: "He hasn't missed any practice. He hasn't missed a snap, and I don't expect him missing Sunday, either." Plan to have Crosby in your IDP lineups. Edge Tyree Wilson (knee) is also questionable but expected to play after putting in a full Friday practice. DT Christian Wilkins appears truly questionable with a knee injury that limited his practice all week. We'll check his status Sunday. The Raiders ruled out LB Divine Deablo (oblique, concussion). That makes Luke Masterson a starter.
Raiders Edge Maxx Crosby (knee) is active for tonight's game against the Chargers. He should be fine to use as planned in your IDP lineups after playing through a doubtful tag two weeks ago and a questionable tag Sunday. There's some risk the short week leaves him less ready, but he also gets Easton Stick in the Chargers QB's first NFL start. So there's upside as well.
Raiders Edge Maxx Crosby is questionable for Thursday night’s game against the Chargers. Well bet on him playing through the knee injury once again after playing through a doubtful tag two weeks ago and a questionable designation last week. We’ll confirm Crosby ahead of the game
