Las Vegas Raiders star pass rusher Maxx Crosby is currently recovering from a full meniscus repair surgery performed two months ago, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. While Crosby reportedly "looks great and feels great" during his rehabilitation process, the timing of the procedure has created significant hurdles for any potential movement involving the veteran defender.
Per @RapSheet, multiple NFL teams have contacted the Raiders to inquire about a trade since news of the surgery broke, hoping to land the elite edge rusher. However, the recovery timeline drastically limits the possibility of a trade being executed in the near future. Crosby remains focused on his rehabilitation and getting back to full health as the NFL offseason continues.
The three-time Pro Bowler has been the cornerstone of the Raiders defense, making the trade inquiries a notable development despite the physical setback. For now, the organization appears set to keep their star defender as he continues his recovery program. Crosby has established himself as one of the most productive and high-motor players in the league, making his health status a high priority for the Las Vegas front office and potential suitors alike.
