Mark Davis emphatically emailed ESPN to say Maxx Crosby isn't being traded

 

You might want to sit down if you were hoping the Las Vegas Raiders were going to trade superstar defensive end Maxx Crosby before the 2024 NFL Deadline.

With Crosby trade speculation in the air, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported on Saturday night that Raiders owner Mark Davis emailed the sports media company about Crosby not being available for a trade.

“We’re Not Trading Maxx Crosby,” the email reportedly read, per Schefter. “Before Or After The Trade Deadline!!!”

Schefter confirmed NFL teams have been interested in Crosby, but Davis’ strong statement makes that possibility a non-factor ahead of the Nov. 5 trade deadline.

Unless Davis is putting on the biggest smokescreen of all time, Crosby will stay with Las Vegas through the season. The trade dreams appear over.
