For his part, Crosby addressed the trade rumors on his podcast this week.

“I’m sitting here innocently and just doing what I do, and I feel like I got to like address it with my teammates,” he said on “The Rush With Maxx Crosby” podcast. “I’m like, ‘I’m not trying to leave.’

“I don’t have 100 percent control and all that, but I want to be here. I want to be silver and black. I’ll say it loud and (expletive) clear: I want to be a Raider. I’ve said that over and over and over again.”
