Maxx Crosby trade rumors and injury recovery

Overview

Maxx Crosby entered the 2026 season under a three‑year, $106.5 million extension, leading the league in tackles for loss. Trade interest from teams including the Bears, Rams, Bills, 49ers, Eagles, and Cowboys persisted through July. On July 29, Crosby returned to Raiders training camp following a six‑month recovery from a torn meniscus, a knee injury that had previously caused a trade to the Baltimore Ravens to collapse after a failed physical. In mid-August, Raiders general manager John Spytek addressed the rumors, stating, “People do what they do. I’m just trying to make the Raiders as good as possible. Right now Maxx is here and I have every expectation that he’ll be here.” Despite this, ESPN’s Adam Schefter noted that Crosby could re‑enter trade talks later in the season if the Raiders struggle, specifically mentioning the Chicago Bears and Dallas Cowboys as potential suitors. By early September, trade speculation intensified following salary cap maneuvers by the Dallas Cowboys, who created approximately $33 million in available space.

Recent reports indicate that the Los Angeles Rams pursued Crosby during the spring, but the team eventually acquired Myles Garrett instead. While the Rams emerged as a strong suitor following the voided Baltimore deal, Crosby reportedly turned down an opportunity to join Los Angeles, expressing a desire to remain with the Raiders. On the prediction market Kalshi, there is currently a 69% probability that Crosby will remain in Las Vegas, with the Dallas Cowboys noted as the only other team with a significant chance (15%) of acquiring him. Analysts suggest September will serve as a critical period for the league to assess Crosby's health following his injury recovery.
