Maxx Crosby Downplays Trade Buzz as Raiders Signal Desire to Keep Star Pass Rusher

Raiders leadership says it wants him to stay.

Overview

  • Speaking on the Let's Go podcast, Crosby declined to address specific rumors, said he knows his truth, and emphasized recovery, family and winning as his priorities.
  • New head coach Klint Kubiak said he wants Crosby to be part of the Raiders’ future and noted they met this week, with owner Mark Davis publicly echoing support for keeping the star defender.
  • Crosby underwent meniscus surgery on Jan. 7, and NFL Network reporting indicates any decision on his future could take time as he rehabs.
  • League insiders continue to link multiple contenders to Crosby and suggest Las Vegas would demand a major return, with comparisons to recent multi–first-round deals.
  • ESPN’s Adam Schefter said at least one team plans to push an NFL change expanding how far into the future draft picks can be traded from three to five years, a proposal that could widen potential trade packages.
