After a Dismal 2-5 Record, Raiders' Two-Time Pro Bowl Superstar Expresses Readiness to Play Depth DE to Join Cowboys: "If the Cowboys Call, I’ll Be Ready"
After a disappointing 2-5 performance with the Las Vegas Raiders, two-time Pro Bowl defensive star – Maxx Crosby – is at the center of the NFL 2025 trade market. Amid the Raiders’ struggles and a lack of cohesion in their defense, Crosby is reportedly eager to be traded to find a team with true championship potential.
Sources close to the situation indicate that the Dallas Cowboys have contacted the Raiders to explore the possibility, and this potential trade has quickly sparked a frenzy on social media. With the Cowboys needing more firepower at the Edge Rusher position to replace Micah Parsons, Maxx Crosby is seen as the perfect piece – someone who could transform Dallas’ already strong defense into a “nightmare” for the entire NFL.
Despite being one of the league’s top defensive players, Crosby touched fans’ hearts by expressing his willingness to join the Cowboys even in a backup role (depth DE).
“If the Cowboys call, I’ll be ready,” Crosby shared: “I want to come in to contribute, compete, and prove my worth. I see something in the Cowboys that many teams lack: the DNA of a champion. They play with a fighting spirit, with pride, and I want to be a part of that.”
Over six seasons with the Raiders, Crosby has made a significant impact with over 60 quarterback sacks, two Pro Bowl appearances, and one First-Team All-Pro honor. He also led the NFL in sacks in 2023, becoming an icon of resilience and relentless effort.
For Dallas, the addition of Maxx Crosby, who possesses strength and keen play-reading ability, is likened by experts to a “steel wall” that could elevate the Cowboys’ defense to new heights.
With Crosby’s current contract (3 years, $106.5 million, $91.5 million guaranteed), the Cowboys have the salary cap flexibility to finalize this deal before the trade deadline on November 4.
If this happens, Dallas fans can dream of an “impenetrable” defensive line – anchored by Maxx Crosby – giving the Cowboys a real shot at returning to the Super Bowl after nearly three decades of waiting.
