Raiders RB Kenyan Drake Calls for NFL Rule Change After Season-Ending Injury

Raiders running back Kenyan Drake will reportedly miss the rest of the season and he wants the NFL to do something to prevent injuries like his from happening again.

Drake was injured in the second quarter of Sunday’s game against Washington when he was dragged down from behind by defensive tackle Daniel Wise. Wise slid under Drake’s body while pulling him backwards, causing Drake’s lower leg to get caught under Wise. Drake had to be taken off the field on a cart and was quickly ruled out for the rest of the game. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported later that Drake broke his ankle and would miss the rest of the season.
