Raiders Make History, Extend Maxx Crosby with Record-Breaking $106.5M Deal
The Las Vegas Raiders have secured their defensive cornerstone for years to come, signing superstar defensive end Maxx Crosby to a massive three-year, $106.5 million contract extension. The deal includes a staggering $91.5 million in guaranteed money, making Crosby the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history.
Crosby, 26, has been the heart and soul of the Raiders’ defense since being drafted in the fourth round of the 2019 NFL Draft. Over the past few seasons, he has established himself as one of the most dominant pass rushers in the league, earning multiple Pro Bowl selections and consistently ranking among the league leaders in sacks and pressures. His relentless motor, leadership, and elite playmaking ability made him a priority for the Raiders’ front office, and they rewarded him accordingly.
“Maxx embodies everything we want in a Raider—his work ethic, passion, and dominance on the field speak for themselves,” Raiders GM Tom Telesco said in a statement. “He’s a game-changer, and we’re thrilled to have him locked in for the future.”
Crosby’s record-setting deal surpasses previous non-QB contracts, reaffirming the growing value of elite defensive playmakers in today’s NFL. The extension will keep him in Las Vegas through at least the 2028 season, ensuring the Raiders continue to build their defense around one of the league’s most feared pass rushers.
With this move, the Raiders signal their commitment to defensive excellence, making Crosby the face of their franchise as they look to return to playoff contention.
