Rotowire
Crosby (ankle) agreed to a three-year, $106.5 million extension with the Raiders on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Raiders' Maxx Crosby: Undergoing tightrope surgery
Rotowire
Crosby (ankle) is scheduled to undergo a tightrope procedure Tuesday to address the Grade 3 sprain he had aggravated Week 14, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

Crosby (ankle) was a limited participant in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Crosby sat out the Raiders' Week 4 win over the Browns, which was the first game he missed in his NFL career.
