Crawford (undisclosed) announced his retirement Tuesday, per his personal Twitter account.

EDGE Analysis

Crawford spent the 2020 campaign with the Titans and played in all 16 games, registering 28 tackles, two sacks and one forced fumble, but he didn't suit up for the Cardinals in 2021 due to an undisclosed injury. The 10-year veteran ends his NFL career with 164 tackles, 18 sacks, three forced fumbles and one interception.

The Cardinals placed Crawford (undisclosed) on injured reserve Tuesday, Bob McManaman of The Arizona Republic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Crawford spent the 2020 campaign with the Titans and played in all 16 games, registering 28 tackles, two sacks and one forced fumble. The nine-year veteran was in place for a sizeable workload behind J.J. Watt, but now that opportunity shifts to Zach Allen, Michael Dogbe and Josh Mauro as they compete for the backup role.

Crawford signed a contract with Cardinals on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Crawford spent last season in Tennessee where he recorded 28 tackles (20 solo), two sacks and a forced fumble across 16 games. Prior to his stint with the Titans, the veteran linebacker spent time with the Raiders, Cowboys and Falcons. In Arizona, he'll most likely look to compete for a reserve role on the team.

Crawford recorded seven tackles and forced a fumble in Week 13 against the Browns.

EDGE Analysis

Crawford recorded a season-high seven tackles, playing a significant role in the Titans' effort to stop the rushing attack. He also recorded a key forced fumble, stripping Baker Mayfield late in the fourth quarter to extend Tennessee's chance to earn a win. Crawford remains a part-time player along the defensive line and has recorded more than two tackles in only one other contest this season.

Crawford (illness) has been activated off the COVID-19/reserve list, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Crawford returns to the active roster after logging two weeks on the COVID-19 list. The veteran will now be able to join his new teammates on the field after signing with the Titans earlier this offseason. Crawford has spent time with the Raiders, Cowboys and Falcons since entering the league in 2012, recording 132 tackles and 16 sacks across 93 games in the process.

The Titans placed Crawford (illness) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Crawford has either tested positive for the virus or has been in close contact with someone who has. The 31-year-old defensive end registered 24 tackles over 16 games with the Falcons in 2019, and he'll remain away from the team until he passes the proper procedures.

Crawford agreed to terms on a contract with Tennessee on Tuesday, John Glennon of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 31-year-old had a quiet year this past season after his six sacks in 2018, supplying 24 tackles (six solo) and a half sack across 16 games. Crawford should vie for a rotational role for the Titans heading into the 2020 season.

Crawford collected 24 tackles, three pass deflections, four QB hits and half a sack across 16 appearances for the Falcons during 2019.

EDGE Analysis

2018 was a breakout campaign for the London-born mammoth, with Crawford racking up career highs in tackles (35), QB hits (nine) and sacks (six). Involvement this season diminished, as he logged only four starts after picking up 11 during 2018, and played 50-plus percent of the defensive snaps just four times after fielding 60-plus percent of the snaps 11 times last year. Following three seasons as a member of the Falcons, the 31-year-old is set to become an unrestricted free agent once his contract expires in March.

Crawford (thigh) was a limited participant at Friday's practice and is expected to play Sunday against the Jaguars, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Crawford will suit up and serve in a depth role behind starting defensive tackles Grady Jarrett and Tyeler Davison. He will look to pick up his first sack of the season against Jacksonville quarterback Gardner Minshew.

Crawford (thigh) sat out Wednesday's practice session, Jason Butt of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

After he collected a career-best six sacks and 35 tackles in 2018, the arrow was pointing up on Crawford's career and the team entered 2019 with optimism about his ability to contribute to a stingy defensive operation. The season has so far not gone according to plan, however, as Crawford remains without a sack heading into Week 16. He has been a steady contributor throughout the season by fielding at least 20 percent of the defensive snaps in every contest, but Crawford has now gone eight games without recording a start, after starting four times between Weeks 1 and 6. If able to fully recover from his injury in short order, Crawford could see an uptick in involvement over the final two weeks with Takkarist McKinley (shoulder) now on injured reserve.
