Crawford Out for Season, Johnson Seizes Opportunity | Las Vegas Raiders News

Raiders rookie Keyron Crawford’s season is over after a brutal ankle injury in preseason, landing him on injured reserve — a move that signals a serious setback for the third-round pick trying to carve out a role. With limited snaps behind veterans like Maxx Crosby, his absence won’t shake the team’s defensive plans, but it opens the door for Patrick Johnson, who dominated preseason play with 11 tackles and 2 sacks. Meanwhile, tight end Carter Runyon got the return designation, hinting at a longer recovery path — while Crawford’s is likely a full-season loss. Tough break for the young player, but maybe a chance for someone else to shine. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
