Maxx Crosby Staying Put: Raiders Star Not For Sale

Maxx Crosby, a prominent name at last year's NFL trade deadline, is generating no such buzz this year. League sources confirm that the Las Vegas Raiders star defensive end is not expected to be traded and has no desire to leave the team. Unlike the previous year when he questioned his future, Crosby is now committed to staying in Las Vegas.

To date, the Raiders have not engaged in any trade discussions concerning Crosby. While other teams might inquire before the November 10 deadline, the Raiders' stance is firm. Crosby himself expressed a strong desire to remain a Raider for life.

In another key development, Kirk Cousins remains the Raiders' starting quarterback. The team plans to continue starting him, believing he is not to blame for recent struggles following a 3-0 start. Cousins currently leads the NFL with 16 touchdown passes and is third in passing yards.

The Raiders face a challenging upcoming schedule, and they are counting on Crosby's presence on the field. They also anticipate needing Cousins to lead them through tough defensive opponents after a recent bye week.
