He made the 2019 Pro Bowl alternates team as well. Sports Illustrated correspondent Hondo S Carpenter confirmed the news.
“Thank you, Henry. If he does, it will be on the Raiders’ terms. Jon Gruden and Mike Mayock are winners, and they know how the salary cap can impact a team. At some point, Maxx Crosby is going to get paid, and they can’t mortgage the future today. Will he? I would put the odds at 20%,” Hondo said.
