Raiders Edge Maxx Crosby (knee) is active for today's game against the Vikings, as expected. Crosby played through a doubtful designation last week and has said he's feeling better this week. Use him as planned in your IDP lineups.
Raiders Edge Maxx Crosby (knee) is officially questionable for the second straight week. He told NFL Network Friday, however, that he feels "incredible" and will play Sunday against the Vikings. We're not buying his assessment of the knee. But Crosby played through a doubtful tag after no practice in Week 13. This time around, he managed a limited Friday practice. Crosby played his smallest snap share of the season last time out, but that was still 82%. We'd go ahead and play Crosby in most cases. See where he sits in our Week 14 DL rankings.
Raiders Edge Maxx Crosby (knee) is active for today's game against the Chiefs. He becomes the second player this year to be active after being listed as doubtful, following Giants WR Darius Slayton earlier today. There's obviously still risk of re-injury and/or limited playing time. But Crosby's available if you were waiting for him in your IDP lineup.
Raiders Edge Maxx Crosby remains doubtful for today's game against the Chiefs with a knee injury that kept him out of practice all week. But multiple reports say he plans to try to play. How effective he'll be and how much of his normal snap share he'll get obviously remain to be seen. And, of course, there's still the chance he turns up inactive. If you have another viable option for your IDP lineup, we'd lean away from using Crosby -- especially in a lackluster matchup for his fantasy upside. But we'll update Crosby's status when the inactive come out around 3 p.m. ET.
Update: Fox's Jay Glazer calls Crosby "60-40" to play. We'd still try to use another IDP option but have re-added Crosby (low) in the Week 12 DL rankings.
Raiders Edge Maxx Crosby (knee) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Chiefs ... but the team is still hoping he can get ready. Crosby has missed practice all week, but HC Antonio Pierce told the team website Friday that his star pass rusher is "getting treatment around the clock." Pierce added, "If he can be there Sunday, he'll be there." The doubtful tag, of course, means that you shouldn't expect to have Crosby available for your IDP lineup. No other true edge player has been getting even 50% snap share for the Raiders. No one on the team besides Crosby has more than 2.5 sacks. So you shouldn't be looking for any Raiders D-lineman to fill in for Crosby in your IDP lineup. We'll confirm his status ahead of Sunday's game.
Raiders Edge Maxx Crosby (knee) is active for today's game against the Chargers. Use him as planned in your IDP lineups.
Raiders DE Maxx Crosby signed a 4-year extension with the Raiders on Friday, with $53 million guaranteed amid $95 million total. Crosby posted a middling 8 sacks in his 3rd season, but that belied his true performance. Crosby led all defenders in total pressures, according to Pro Football Focus. And his 30 QB hits exceeded the combined total from his first 2 seasons (27).
The Raiders made DE Clelin Ferrell inactive for the Monday-night game against Baltimore. Vegas' signing of DE Carl Nassib and then DE Yannick Ngakoue to sizable contracts the past 2 offseasons pointed to dissatisfaction with the position group. But this is a noteworthy step because the Raiders drafted Ferrell 4th overall just 3 years ago. Consider Ngakoue, Maxx Crosby and Carl Nassib locked in as the Raiders' top 3 edge players heading into the opener.
