This past season didn’t end well between the Las Vegas Raiders and star pass rusher Maxx Crosby.

This season, Crosby had 10 sacks, 73 tackles, 28 tackles for loss, two forced fumbles and an interception in 15 games. Crosby, 28, signed a three-year contract extension in March 2025 that guarantees him $30 million in 2026. According to Over The Cap, if the Raiders were to trade Crosby, they would save $30 million in cap space.

Based on a recent rumor, the Las Vegas Raiders could be forced to trade one of their franchise cornerstones this offseason, and the San Francisco 49ers, Buffalo Bills, and Detroit Lions should have a ton of interest.

The Las Vegas Raiders might be forced to trade their best player before this year's draft, according to Jay Glazer.
