Maxx Crosby Affirms Commitment to Raiders Amid Trade Speculation

Maxx Crosby, the defensive end for the Las Vegas Raiders, reaffirmed his commitment to the team on Monday, stating he never wanted to leave amid ongoing trade rumors.

Crosby addressed the speculation during the Raiders' training camp preparations for the 2026 season, emphasizing his focus on being the best player he can be for the franchise. Earlier this year, a proposed trade to the Baltimore Ravens fell through due to concerns over his knee injury, which required surgery after the 2025 season.

Throughout his career, Crosby has been a key player for the Raiders, accumulating 69.5 sacks and earning five consecutive Pro Bowl selections. His recent performance includes a career-high 14.5 sacks in 2023. Despite potential trade discussions if the team struggles, Crosby remains focused on improving and leading the team as they enter a new season.
