Klint Kubiak is going with naming Raiders captains on a weekly basis this season. And it seems to be following the standouts from the previous week because this week's captains were all Ballers from Week 2.
This week's captains in each facet are Tre Tucker (offense), Maxx Crosby (defense), and AJ Cole (special teams).
Tucker put up 119 yards and a touchdown last week to lead the Raiders in receiving. He is the Raiders' number one receiver and showed on Sunday in LA that he can take the top off the defense.
Crosby didn't put up great stats last week, but he had a big impact on the game. He forced four penalties on right tackle Joe Alt including a holding in the end zone for a safety.
Cole was a major weapon, pinning the Chargers deep to start several of their drives, including inside the ten a couple times.
Being named a captain is a nice bonus to having standout performances.
