Browns LT Wills Jr. out, but team catches lucky break as Raiders missing Crosby, Adams with injuries
Associated PressCLEVELAND — The Browns got a little lucky before getting to Las Vegas. On Friday, the Raiders ruled out wide receiver Davante Adams and defensive end Maxx Crosby — the team’s two best players — with injuries ahead of Sunday’s game against Cleveland, a development that caused a massive swing in betting odds. Crosby’s injury is a pregame win for the Browns, who have been ravaged by injuries to their offensive line and will be without starting left tackle Jedrick Wills Jr. It was a similar situation last week, when the Browns lost three offensive linemen to injuries in a 21-15 loss to the New York Giants. “There’s things that we can do based on who’s available.” As the injuries piled up last week, left guard Joel Bitonio moved to tackle, center Ethan Pocic slid to left guard, Nick Harris played center and rookie Zak Zinter replaced Teller.
