Maxx Crosby says he will undergo ankle surgery and miss rest of the Raiders season
Associated PressHENDERSON, Nev. — Raiders star defensive end Maxx Crosby will undergo ankle surgery and miss the rest of the season, the latest in a series of injuries that have devastated Las Vegas. I truly believe in my soul that I’m changing the game one snap at a time and changing the way this position is viewed.” Crosby is not only the most recent of the major defensive injuries, he’s the focal point on that side of the ball and one of the team’s top locker-room leaders. But Crosby played through an injured ankle late last season and again was not 100% after getting hurt again Sept. 15 at Baltimore. “Instead of sitting out for over a month with my first high ankle sprain @ Baltimore, I only missed 1 game and came back and fought all year because that’s who I am.” He has 7 1/2 sacks and 17 tackles for loss this season.
