Raiders Week 3 snap counts: Rookie OL debut, Maxx Crosby with unusually low playing time
For the first time this season, the two offensive linemen the Raiders selected in the draft took the field. Second round pick Jackson Powers-Johnson came in at right guard and third rounder DJ Glaze entered the game at right tackle.
JPJ came in late in the game, just to mix things up and give him some reps. Oddly he came in at right guard considering he had been lining up at left guard early on and Cody Whitehair has been lining up there in his absence.
Glaze came in early due to an injury to Thayer Munford that knocked him out of the game on just his second snap.
It was noted that during the game Maxx Crosby was coming out for some plays. Not something he is known for doing. It was because his high ankle sprain was bothering him.
In total Crosby missed 13 snaps. That's a lot for him. He didn't even miss that many snaps when he had his serious knee injury late last season. The only other time in the past three years Crosby was out of a game for more snaps than Sunday was the blowout win over the Chargers last year, when the Raiders had put the game away and his presence was no longer needed.
