For most edge rushers, the season Maxx Crosby had in 2024 would be considered a great season, if not a career year.
However, his seven and a half sacks were the lowest of the five-time Pro Bowler’s career since 2020 and, despite still leading the Las Vegas Raiders in that category, he never looked like the impact player Raiders fans were used to seeing. Most of Crosby’s down year can be attributed to nagging ankle injuries, leading to the pass rusher missing games for the first time in his career and ultimately ending his season prematurely. Now fully healthy, Crosby is hoping to shake off the rust and put last season firmly in the rearview mirror.
