Star wide receiver was hurt in practice Thursday
The Las Vegas Raiders are dealing with injury to their two superstar players. Maxx Crosby and Davante Adams will be both be out for Sunday’s matchup with the Cleveland Browns.
Maxx Crosby is dealing with a high ankle sprain that he played through vs the Carolina Panthers. Adam’s injury came late in the week as a surprise. He ended up on Thursday’s injury report, and Coach Pierce announced he would be out for Week 4.
Adam Schefter of ESPN reported that Adam’s injury happened late on Thursday in practice. The injury is supposed to be week to week.
Davante Adams pulled up lame in the closing minutes of the Raiders’ practice Thursday, grabbing his hamstring with an injury that is expected to sideline the star wide receiver on a week-to-week basis, per league sources.https://t.co/3zWmEkopWQ

The Raiders have weapons outside that can survive without Adams but he will be sorely missed. He is vital to the team’s success and without him on the field will be a huge loss for the offense. The attention he brings opens up the offense for the rest of his team.
Injuries are a part of the NFL season and good teams find ways to win without their best players. It will be the next man up for the Raiders and will see who takes the lead as a receiver.
