Maxx Crosby wasn’t the only Raider player to have a breakout performance in Week 11. Second-round pick Trayvon Mullen had a career day as well, recording three pass deflections and the game-sealing interception in the fourth quarter.
Mullen was so good, in fact, that he was the sixth-highest graded player in the entire NFL in Week 11, according to Pro Football Focus. He finished the week with an overall grade of 91.5, the single-highest game of his career.
One of the big reasons why the Raiders were comfortable with trading away Gareon Conley was due to the play of Trayvon Mullen. While he’s never been the biggest or most athletic cornerback, he is someone who just finds a way to make plays when it matters the most.
Over the next six weeks, expect Mullen to get a ton of playing time for the Raiders as they make a push for the playoffs.
