Maxx Crosby Fantasy Stats

Las Vegas Raiders edge rusher Maxx Crosby (knee) was placed on Injured Reserve before his team's Week 17 matchup against the New York Giants, ending his 2025 season. Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo of NFL Network report that the 28-year-old will undergo surgery to repair his injured meniscus. Perhaps most importantly, Rapoport states that Crosby wanted to finish the season on the field, and the team's decision to place him on Injured Reserve will cause him to "evaluate his future with the Raiders." Crosby has played all seven of his NFL seasons with the Raiders, recording 69.5 sacks, 133 TFLs, and 164 QB hits across 110 career games. Pro Football Focus graded him as the 15th-best edge defender in the NFL out of 112 qualified players at the position for his work in 2025. If Crosby were to request a trade out of Las Vegas over the offseason, he would surely generate significant interest around the league.

Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby (knee) is expected to require knee surgery that will sideline him into the offseason, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. The news came out on Friday that Crosby would be shut down for the season. Now, the superstar pass rusher is expected to have surgery to fix a knee issue that has been bothering him for most of the regular season. The Raiders have officially placed Crosby on the season-ending injured reserve on Saturday. He'll finish the season with 73 tackles, 10.0 sacks, and two fumbles forced in 15 games. Crosby is under contract through 2029, but it wouldn't be shocking to see the rebuilding Raiders move on from him this offseason.

Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby (knee) is being shut down for the rest of the regular season, according to Jay Glazer. Crosby suffered a knee injury early in the season and has been playing through it for months. The Raiders aren't playing for anything at this point in the season, so they'll elect to let Crosby rest and get healthy. Crosby reportedly didn't like the decision and stormed out of the building. The superstar pass-rusher is notorious for wanting to play in every game, no matter the team's record or injury to his body. The 2-13 Raiders are certainly rebuilding and might trade the 28-year-old pass-rusher for draft picks or younger players in the offseason. For now, Crosby is done for the year, and the Raiders' defense gets worse heading into a Week 17 matchup versus the New York Giants.

Las Vegas Raiders defensive lineman Maxx Crosby (knee) is anticipated to be active for Sunday's home tilt with the Denver Broncos, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. Crosby appeared on the Raiders' injury report ahead of their Week 12 loss to the Browns, but hadn't really seen his snap share suffer because of it. However, it's worth noting that he'd miss practice twice this week -- and garner a questionable tag -- as they prep for an outing with Denver. Currently, it appears he'll try to gut it out and play, which is excellent news for Las Vegas, as the 28-year-old's eight sacks are more than the following two team leaders combined. If, for some reason, Crosby can't suit up, teammates Tyree Wilson and Charles Snowden would see an uptick in snaps behind Malcom Koonce on the defense's edge.

Las Vegas Raiders All-Pro defensive end Maxx Crosby (knee) is officially questionable to suit up for the Week 14 contest against the Denver Broncos. Crosby is in danger of missing Sunday's game after sitting out of practice on Thursday and Friday. Crosby is known for playing despite being banged up. It's going to take quite a bit for Crosby to not suit up on a Sunday, but fantasy managers in IDP formats must pay close attention to his status going into Sunday. If he sits, the Raiders' defense would be in bad shape for this divisional matchup. Tyree Wilson figures to see increased playing time if Crosby is unable to go.

The Las Vegas Raiders met with star defensive end Maxx Crosby on Tuesday to let him know they are not shopping him and won't trade him, sources tell NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Other teams are interested in the All-Pro pass-rusher -- it was reported on Tuesday morning that the Dallas Cowboys are eyeing him -- but the Raiders aren't interested in moving him, and Crosby wants to stay in Las Vegas despite the team's disappointing 2-5 start. The 28-year-old defensive end left the Week 7 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs early with a knee injury and didn't return in the 31-0 blowout, but his injury is reportedly not serious, which means he should have a good chance to return after this week's bye for a Week 9 meeting with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Although Crosby has only four sacks through seven games this year, he'll be a must-start in IDP fantasy formats if he's active coming out of the Raiders' bye.

Las Vegas Raiders pass rusher Maxx Crosby (knee) left Sunday's game against the Chiefs after taking a low block to the knee, but that apparently has not stopped the Dallas Cowboys from inquiring about his availability. With the NFL trade deadline less than two weeks away, the Cowboys have reportedly reached out to see what it would take to acquire him. Crosby and the Raiders agreed to a three-year contract extension before the 2025 season, so it's unlikely the team has any plans to deal him. Still, in IDP leagues, Dallas would be a dream landing spot for the All-Pro pass rusher, as the Cowboys have forced opponents into obvious passing situations far more commonly than the Raiders. In most other fantasy formats, though, the Cowboys' defense has been a gift for opposing offenses, and fantasy managers should be rooting for the status quo, especially those rostering pass catchers from the Vikings, Chargers, or Commanders, as those three teams make up Dallas' fantasy playoff schedule.

Las Vegas Raiders star edge rusher Maxx Crosby (knee), who was pulled from the Week 7 blowout loss to the Kansas City Chiefs early on Sunday as a precaution, should be "OK moving forward," a source told Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The 28-year-old All-Pro was injured in the second quarter and did not return in the 31-0 drubbing. Not only is Crosby's injury not considered serious, but he'll have extra time to recover during the team's bye in Week 8 before potentially returning to face the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 9. It's good news for the struggling Raiders and for fantasy managers in IDP leagues that are counting on Crosby the rest of the way. Crosby was a disappointment on Sunday with only three tackles (one solo) before getting hurt, but he should be ready to go coming out of next week's bye. The four-time Pro Bowler came into Week 7 action with only four sacks and 17 solo tackles in six games played.

Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby (knee) is considered doubtful to return to Sunday's Week 7 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Crosby suffered a knee injury that forced him out of action in the first half. Before exiting, Crosby recorded one solo tackle and two assisted tackles. The Raiders are already being blown out, so they might play it safe with their superstar pass rusher in the second half. It's also worth noting that the Raiders have a bye next week, so they could give him extra time to rest. If Crosby remains out, Tyree Wilson figures to see an expanded role in the second half.

Las Vegas Raiders All-Pro defensive end Maxx Crosby (knee) was removed from the final Week 5 injury report on Friday and will play on Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts on the road. Crosby was added to the injury report after being limited on Thursday with a knee injury. However, he was able to practice in full on Friday and is in no danger of missing this weekend's contest. The 28-year-old pass-rusher needs to be in all starting lineups in IDP formats against the Colts as he looks for his third sack of the year against quarterback Daniel Jones. The 28-year-old four-time Pro Bowler is an elite pass-rusher in the NFL and has 19 tackles (11 solo), two sacks, seven tackles for loss, five QB hits, an interception, and a forced fumble in the first four games in 2025.
