Promising 2nd year CB/Punt Returner tore his LCL and possibly his ACL and is now out for the season. He injured his knee attempting to make something out of nothing on a punt return, which is unfortunate as he was making a lot of noise as a ball hawk and a much improved defender.

It would see that this creates the potential for 1 more guy to make the 53 man roster as a Defensive Back or Return Man, as Crawford was a lock to make the roster (I'm looking at you Skye Dawson and Chris Thompson).
