Bears a Team to Watch for Potential Maxx Crosby Trade

The Chicago Bears are "a team to watch" in potentially trading for Las Vegas Raiders All-Pro pass-rusher Maxx Crosby, multiple sources told Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports. The Dallas Cowboys are also lurking, according to sources, but the Bears could be the team best positioned to trade for Crosby. The Raiders want to pry two first-round picks and a young player away from a team for Crosby, which isn't viewed as realistic for a player nearly 30 years old who is also coming off knee surgery. However, teams are willing to give up a first-round pick and then some for Crosby, who ranks second in the NFL with 68 tackles for loss over the last three years. Another complicating factor for a Crosby trade is his contract and whether he wants to play on the three-year, $109.5 million contract he signed with Vegas last March. One source believes that Crosby would play in 2026 under his current contract. Any team that lands Crosby, a five-time Pro Bowler, will be getting a huge boost in the pass-rush department.
