    Maxx Crosby, defensive end for the Las Vegas Raiders, recently spoke out on the physical and emotional toll that he undergoes every day as a professional football player. Crosby was quizzed on his current form and his expectations for the upcoming NFL season with the Raiders, when he discussed his injuries and his rehab going into the 2025 season.

    Crosby has been with the Raiders since 2019 and has definitely seen the team go through various ups and downs. This season, Crosby will be playing his very first year with head coach Pete Carroll who took up the job after the Raiders disappointed massively in the 2024 NFL season.

    “I feel incredible. I’m healthy. Back 100 percent. It has been a journey, doing another rehab again, which can get tough, especially mentally more than anything. But having the right people around me all the time—that’s more important than damn near anything, especially when times are hard. I don’t live a normal life. I have to be dialed in and focused at an obsession-type level. And that’s where I’m at in my life. I give everything to my craft and find ways to improve and help us ultimately win a championship. That’s all that’s on my mind.” Maxx Crosby revealed about his life as an NFL player in his latest interview with ‘The Town’ magazine.

    Maxx Crosby is definitely hoping for a much better season with the Raiders in the upcoming football year. In the 2024 NFL season, the defensive end could not play in the last four weeks all because of an ankle injury and surgery.

    Maxx Crosby Not Interested In Leaving Raiders

    Maxx Crosby recently made an admission on his podcast which will definitely delight Las Vegas Raiders fans. The defensive end was asked if he would want to play for a team, other than the Raiders, in the future.

    “I’m not even –  I could never in a million years would every imagine myself leaving the Raiders or anything like that. He would never by my coach, but I love Sean McVay. Every time I’ve been around him. Every time I’ve talked to him. I ran into him at a restaurant one time, he’ll take all the time in the world to sit there and talk to you.”  Maxx Crosby explained in his podcast.
