"According to Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated, the Raiders' team brass "reached out to (Crosby) immediately after the trade died yesterday." The night of the ordeal, ESPN's Adam Schefter relayed that Las Vegas was "prepared to get Crosby healthy and have him play," adding that "several" teams had called to inquire about his availability in another trade and that they were listening."
"Per Breer, Crosby was back in the Raiders' building at 6am this morning, coming in early to continue rehabbing the knee injury that seemingly caused all this drama. Two months removed from his full meniscus repair, Crosby's focus has shifted to his "rehab and getting back," according to Rapoport, "ready to play football for the Raiders, ready to move forward.""
"The Athletic's Dianna Russini chimed in, as well, contributing that while the Raiders may still choose to trade Crosby if the right situation arises, his return has created a possible reality in which he could be "playing for the Raiders this upcoming season.""
The Ravens' attempted trade for Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby was canceled, leaving the star player's future uncertain. Following the failed deal, Crosby returned to the Raiders facility to continue rehabilitating from a meniscus repair surgery. The Raiders indicated willingness to get Crosby healthy and back on the field, while also remaining open to trade inquiries from other teams. However, the timing of the canceled trade may limit trade possibilities as interested teams seek favorable deals. Crosby has maintained professionalism throughout the ordeal, though sources indicate frustration with how events unfolded. The Raiders may still trade him if the right opportunity emerges, but he could potentially play for Las Vegas this upcoming season.
