Maxx Crosby Trade Rumours: Detroit Lions Still in the Mix?
Trade rumours continue to swirl around Las Vegas Raiders edge rusher Maxx Crosby. The Detroit Lions are reportedly still a potential destination, although a trade is unlikely in the short term.
The Detroit Lions are hoping to improve after a disappointing 2025 season. The team was previously identified as a potential destination for Raiders star Maxx Crosby, before a failed trade to the Baltimore Ravens. While Crosby is expected to start the season with the Raiders, an insider suggests he could be available for trade later. According to Albert Breer, the Raiders must wait before considering trading Crosby, needing to repair their relationship with him and rebuild fan trust. Breer suggests any trade would only occur after Crosby performs well, helping people forget recent issues. This makes shelving trade plans logical for now.
