Maxx Crosby isn’t a free agent, but the Las Vegas Raiders star edge rusher is heavily involved in trade rumors this offseason. Speculation intensified after Crosby reportedly stormed out of the team facility when told he would sit the final two games of the 2025 season, and FOX Sports’ Jay Glazer suggested his time in Las Vegas may be over.
According to Sports Illustrated, a trade could happen as soon as this week, with teams like the Cowboys, Bears, Ravens, Bills, Patriots, Eagles, and Rams monitoring the situation. While earlier reports suggested a deal might wait until the NFL Draft due to Crosby’s knee surgery, the Raiders may move sooner.
Las Vegas is reportedly seeking two first-round picks and a player — similar to the return the Cowboys received for Micah Parsons. However, Crosby’s age (29 before the 2026 season), recent meniscus surgery, and injury history could impact his trade value.
Raiders GM John Spytek praised Crosby as an elite player but made clear the team is “always listening” to offers. Many analysts now believe a blockbuster trade is likely before the draft, as Crosby appears ready to move on.
