Maxx Crosby has been back with the Las Vegas Raiders, and now, we know where he’ll be playing in the 2026-27 season.<\/p>\n
The Detroit Lions<\/a> were back in the running to finally bring Las Vegas Raiders<\/a> edge Maxx Crosby<\/a> back to Michigan, after the news that the Baltimore Ravens<\/a> have backed out of their deal<\/a> to acquire Crosby.<\/p>\n The ideas was to pair\u00a0him with edge Aidan Hutchinson<\/a> for what would be a dynamite duo. So, now that the Ravens and Crosby aren\u2019t together, will the Detroit Lions swoop in?<\/p>\n Well, late Wednesday night, March 11, Crosby took to X to announce that he\u2019s returning to the Raiders. Of course, anything could still happen, but Crosby coming out with the statement \u201cI\u2019m a Raider\u201d says a lot.<\/p>\n \u201cEverything happens for a reason. Believe noting you hear and half of what you see. I\u2019m a Raider. I\u2019m Back,\u201d he said in the post<\/a>, with video footage of the Undertaker.<\/p>\n So, it appears Crosby is going to stay a Raider, unless, of course, something happens to counter his announcement. Never say never, as we learned with the Ravens situation.<\/p>\n Maxx Crosby Trade: The Story of How the Crosby Journey Went Down<\/p>\n It\u2019s been a wild ride for Crosby. First, he was traded from Vegas to\u00a0the Baltimore Ravens<\/a>, and then, they famously backed out of their deal<\/a> to acquire him.<\/p>\n According to a report from Ryan McFadden of ESPN, Baltimore backed out of the deal due to Crosby\u2019s physical. \u201cNo further details were provided in the Raiders\u2019 announcement, but league sources told ESPN the Ravens backed out because of medical concerns that arose during a physical,\u201d McFadden stated<\/a>.<\/p>\n Crosby\u2019s stats are still strong, regardless of his physical results. During the 2025 <\/a>NFL<\/a> regular season, according to NFL research<\/a>, Crosby recorded 73 total tackles, 10 sacks, 28 tackles for loss and one interception.<\/p>\n On Saturday, March 7, Crosby broke his silence and took to social media to express his thoughts on the trade at the time.<\/p>\n \u201cRaider Nation has given me everything,\u201d Crosby said in the now-deleted message<\/a>. \u201cMy family, had the chance to get married, have the most beautiful daughter in the world, grow as a man, as a player, as a leader, a human being. One thing I could say is above all else is that I gave you everything I got and I have no regrets about that. I put everything into trying to win as a Raider.\u201d<\/p>\n Crosby also said that he was surprised about the trade but that there are no hard feelings. \u201cI have zero ill will towards that organization in any way,\u201d Crosby said. \u201cI want them to have all the success in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n Detroit Lions Restructure Jared Goff\u2019s Contract<\/p>\n It was bound to happen, and amid the scurry of action that took place on Wednesday, March 11, the Detroit Lions worked with quarterback Jared Goff<\/a> to restructure his contract. It\u2019s a normal process for any franchise quarterback with as big a deal as Goff, so the move wasn\u2019t unexpected.<\/p>\n The restructuring freed up a lot of cap space, which is great news for the Detroit Lions.\u00a0According to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network<\/a>, \u201cThe Lions restructured QB Jared Goff\u2019s contract, converting $40 million of his base salary to a signing bonus and adding a void year to clear $32M in 2026 cap space.\u201d So, that helps Detroit make bigger moves.<\/p>\n \n\t\t\tAnne Erickson<\/strong><\/a> is an award-winning reporter for Heavy Sports covering the NFL, NBA and college football.
