Raiders place rookie defensive end Keyron Crawford on injured reserve

The Las Vegas Raiders announced that rookie defensive end Keyron Crawford will miss the entire season after being placed on injured reserve. Crawford sustained an ankle injury during the team's final preseason game against the Houston Texans. Because the organization did not attach a return designation to the transaction, Crawford is ineligible to play for the remainder of the year. This development deprives the Raiders of depth at the pass-rushing position. The team currently holds the top priority on the NFL waiver wire and may target available pass-rushing talent to address the loss. Additionally, running back Ashton Jeanty is managing an ankle injury sustained in practice, though he was not placed on injured reserve at the start of the year.
