After shipping Davante Adams away, the Las Vegas Raiders’ supporters, coaches, and even players may have felt they could all relax because of how distracting it had become, but there are now new trade speculations.
The three-time All-Pro wide out they acquired before to the 2022 season had been the focus of trade negotiations since the previous campaign.
His tirade on “Receiver” on Netflix didn’t help to defuse the situation, and the team’s sluggish start to the season seemed to be the icing on the cake.
The Raiders are already dealing with speculations that pass rusher Maxx Crosby wants to leave after Adams was moved to the New York Jets, where he has been reunited with quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
On Tuesday’s episode of “The Rush Podcast,” Crosby addressed rumors, saying he had to stop his own teammates from spreading false information about him to the Detroit Lions.
Crosby remarked, “Now it’s like they’ve started a whole pandemonium a whole movement like a revolution,” in reference to Detroit supporters igniting trade speculation. “I’m simply doing what I do while sitting here, casually… I had to sort of deal with it with my teammates.”I’m not attempting to depart,” Crosby declared. It’s a f****** business, I realize that.All of it is not entirely under my control.
Las Vegas is where I want to be. I’d like to be Black and Silver. I will state it clearly and unequivocally. My goal is to become a Raider. That’s what I have repeatedly stated. However, there is also a commercial component to it. Although I can’t completely control it, I am aware that it has been f****** crazy to watch all the madness.” Beyond the fact that Crosby is a great player, there are two main reasons why Detroit fans are so fascinated with him. The most evident is that during the team’s victory over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 6, Aidan Hutchinson, their standout pass rusher, shattered his leg.
The pass rusher Myles Garrett of the Cleveland Browns is another name that has been floated, and Lions supporters have been pleading with their club to target any top player on a weak team. The three-time Pro Bowler was born in Michigan and, although growing up in Texas, became a star at Eastern Michigan University, which is 30 minutes from Detroit.
This is the second reason why Lions fans are so drawn to him. Crosby, 27, doesn’t seem to want to leave Las Vegas right now, despite the fact that Detroit fans are all in on him. It’s also important to remember that Raiders owner Mark Davis indicated last week that the Crosby trade rumors are “just not happening.” This story seems to have been put on hold for the time being, but stranger things have happened in the NFL.
