Report: Raiders sign DE Maxx Crosby to record extension

Maxx Crosby is staying in Las Vegas on a record deal.

The Las Vegas Raiders are signing the star defensive end to a massive three-year, $106.6 million extension, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Wednesday.

The deal will make Crosby the highest-paid non-quarterback in league history and includes $91.5 million guaranteed, Schefter added.

The team and Crosby confirmed a multi-year extension was agreed to but did not disclose financial details.

Crosby has played all six seasons for the Raiders and was a second-team All-Pro in 2021 and 2023. He had a combined 35 sacks and 58 tackles for loss between 2021 and 2023.

But Crosby hurt his ankle Sept. 15 at Baltimore and played through that injury until finally deciding with four games left last season to undergo surgery. He had 7 1/2 sacks and 17 tackles for loss at the time he stepped away.

Crosby has been the heartbeat of the defence, setting the tone with a strong work ethic he applies in and out of season to go with a motor that makes him an elite NFL pass rusher.

“I have an immense amount of respect for Maxx, the way he plays the game, the passion he plays with,” new Raiders general manager John Spytek said in February. “This is what (first-year coach) Pete (Carroll) and I have talked about. We want that to be what a Raider looks like, and he’s a great shining example of that, too.”
