Best edge rushers Denver Broncos face in 2022

4. Maxx Crosby, Las Vegas Raiders

The fourth-best pass rusher the Denver Broncos will face in 2022 is Maxx Crosby of the Las Vegas Raiders.

Crosby was a fourth-round draft pick back in 2019 and quickly began making his mark in the NFL.  His 10 sacks during his rookie season stand as his best mark.

However, Crosby’s best season may have been this year, where he played and started in all 17 games en route to a massive contract extension.  He tallied eight sacks and a whopping 30 quarterback hits.

Crosby has also torn up the Broncos in his short career.  He’s got exceptional size, length, and speed.

He’s an incredible athlete overall and is entering his age-25 season, where playing opposite Chandler Jones might just allow him to feast even more.

I hate to say it, but I think he’s an overall better player than anyone the Denver Broncos currently have on their roster.
