Las Vegas Raiders running back Kenyan Drake suffered a gruesome broken ankle during the Raiders’ Week 13 loss to the Washington Commanders, then Washington Football Team. The injury would put Drake on injured reserve and cost him the rest of the season.
The timing couldn’t have been much worse as the Raiders were battling for a playoff spot and the back had just started to find his groove in the offense. In the six previous contests combined, he had racked up 342 total yards and three touchdowns, serving as an excellent complementary player to Josh Jacobs.
