Las Vegas Raiders keep edge rusher Maxx Crosby despite trade speculation

The Raiders are unlikely to trade defensive end Maxx Crosby despite other teams expressing interest. Crosby, coming off a recovery period, has signed a three‑year, $106.5 million extension that runs through 2025 and is expected to start the season as a key pass‑rusher.

The team is also working to bolster the opposite edge, adding three‑year, $48 million free‑agent Kwity Paye and bringing back Malcolm Koonce on a team‑friendly deal. In the 2026 draft, the Raiders selected defensive end Keyron Crawford to add depth to a revamped 3‑4 defense.
