Maxx Crosby will now officially miss the first game of his career.

While the Raiders head coach said Crosby was out in his press conference Friday, the Raiders then called Crosby questionable. But 90 minutes before kickoff, Las Vegas announced that Crosby was inactive for the contest.

Crosby, one of the league's best edge rushers, appeared in 86 consecutive games early in his career. So far this season he has recorded 3.0 sacks with five tackles for loss and five QB hits.

He was unable to train all week due to an ankle injury.

That means the Raiders won't have two of their best players when they face the Browns this afternoon, as receiver Davante Adams is also out with a hamstring injury. He was expelled on Friday.

On the other hand, the Browns' best player, edge rusher Myles Garrett, is active as he deals with foot, Achilles tendon and hamstring injuries.

With Jack Conklin and Jedrick Wills both out due to injuries, James Hudson will start at left tackle while Zak Zinter will start at right guard.

The full list of inactives in Las Vegas includes Crosby, Adams, tight end Michael Mayer, offensive tackle Thayer Munford, linebacker Divine Deablo, cornerback Decamerion Richardson and linebacker Kana'i Mauga.

Cleveland's list of inactive players includes Conklin, Wills, quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson, running back Pierre Strong, cornerback Kahlef Hailassie, receiver Jamari Thrash and tight end David Njoku. Thompson-Robinson is the team's designated emergency third quarterback.
