Raiders at 4-4: Maxx Crosby Wants to Stay as Trade Deadline Nears

The 4-4 Las Vegas Raiders want to stay in the playoff hunt without giving up their future as the Nov. 10 NFL trade deadline approaches. Coach Klint Kubiak and general manager John Spytek are working through roster scenarios. Maxx Crosby wants to stay, and his praise for Kubiak is a change from the frustration that helped lead to a trade to the Baltimore Ravens, a deal that fell apart over concerns about his repaired left knee. Defensive tackle and wide receiver are the biggest needs. Kirk Cousins (19 touchdown passes, 2,124 yards) could draw interest, and 2024 second-round pick Jackson Powers-Johnson is more available after sliding down the depth chart.
