Raiders’ Rookie DE Lost Season to Injury | Las Vegas Raiders News

Raiders rookie defensive end Keyron Crawford’s NFL dreams hit a major snag after tearing his ACL in the final preseason game, forcing him to miss the entire season on injured reserve without a return designation. Drafted in the third round, Crawford was seen as a developmental project behind Maxx Crosby, showing promise before his injury derailed his rookie year. While it’s a crushing blow for the young player and the team, other roster moves offer hope: Ashton Jeanty and Dont’e Thornton Jr. remain active and could suit up Week One, while Carter Runyon is on IR with a return designation, eligible to play starting Week Five. Crawford now has time to learn from veterans and prepare for a comeback next season. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
