Crosby's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Kalib Shaw
Thanks in part to Kalib Shaw, Crosby said goodbye to their seven-game losing streak dating back to last season. Shaw turned in nothing short of a gem on Saturday, picking up two sacks and making 15 total tackles. The dominant performance also gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
If history really does repeat itself, Shaw might just drop another big game when he faces off against Watertown on Saturday. Shaw picked up a sack and made 15 total tackles the last time he and the Indians duked it out back in October of 2023.
