Maxx Crosby, the defensive end for the Las Vegas Raiders, is actually a major concern for the Kansas City Chiefs due to his impressive performance, not a problem for the Raiders. With 6.5 sacks and 10 tackles for loss this season, Crosby is a force to be reckoned with on the field.
The Chiefs’ head coach, Andy Reid, and quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, have expressed their respect for Crosby’s skills, citing his ability to disrupt the game at any moment. Mahomes even mentioned that Crosby has a “high level of respect” from him, praising his motor and elite level of play.
Crosby’s Stats:
– 6.5 sacks this season
– 10 tackles for loss
– 23 pressures on 199 pass rush snaps
– 93% of Las Vegas’ available reps played
In their upcoming matchup, the Chiefs will need to find a way to contain Crosby, who has a history of performing well against them. In 10 career games against the Chiefs, Crosby has recorded 12 tackles for loss, 12 quarterback hits, and five sacks.
Despite trade rumors swirling around him, Crosby has reaffirmed his commitment to the Raiders, stating, “I want to be Silver and Black”. His loyalty and dedication to the team are undeniable, and he’s expected to play a crucial role in the Raiders’ game against the Chiefs.
The Raiders will need Crosby to bring his A-game if they hope to upset the Chiefs. With Jakobi Meyers returning from injury, the Raiders’ offense may get a much-needed boost. However, it’s Crosby’s performance that will likely make or break their chances against the Chiefs.
