Raiders' Maxx Crosby Trade Buzz Grows as Executive Predicts Deal Is Unlikely

A league executive expects Las Vegas to keep the Pro Bowler, leaving only a blockbuster offer as a path to a move.

Overview

  • Las Vegas placed Crosby on season-ending injured reserve for a knee issue, and multiple reports say he is expected to undergo offseason surgery.
  • Jay Glazer reported Crosby vehemently disagreed with the shutdown decision and left the facility after being told he would miss the final two games.
  • An anonymous executive told Fox Sports the Raiders will probably not trade Crosby, though a return comparable to the Micah Parsons deal could be attainable if they did.
  • The 49ers have been floated as a fit, but Tim Kawakami reports team sources are cautious given recent efforts to get younger and cheaper and large cap hits for Nick Bosa and Trent Williams.
  • The Cowboys have been discussed as a suitor after inquiring before the deadline, with media mock proposals involving a first-round pick and DT Osa Odighizuwa, while a speculative Bears concept swaps DJ Moore and draft capital for Crosby.
