The Las Vegas Raiders pulled off a trade before the deadline, sending Kirk Cousins to the Minnesota Vikings. There was always a chance that Cousins would be moved before the deadline as the Raiders look to play their No. 1 pick, Fernando Mendoza, but there was also another player who many had questions about.
That player was Maxx Crosby, who some thought would've been moved along with Cousins. According to NFL insider Jordan Schultz, the Raiders stayed firm on not dealing him.
“Sources: The Raiders received calls over the last few weeks about DE Maxx Crosby, but the answer was he isn’t being moved and is staying in Las Vegas. Some thought that could change with the Kirk Cousins trade today, but Crosby is a Raider, and the future with Fernando Mendoza begins now,” Schultz wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
