DENVER -- Las Vegas Raiders three-time Pro Bowl edge rusher Maxx Crosby spoke on his team's contentious week, wished probable soon-to-be-traded teammate Davante Adams well and reiterated his own desire to remain with the team following Sunday's 34-18 loss at the Denver Broncos.
This came after a hobbled Crosby had two of the Raiders' three sacks, a week after missing the first game of his six-year career because of a left high ankle sprain.
"You think I'm not used to this s--- going on?" Crosby asked reporters gathered at his locker with a laugh. "It is what it is. I've been dealing with it my whole career, so it is what it is."
The week seemed to get off to a good start for the Raiders after their home win against the Cleveland Browns in the wake of coach Antonio Pierce saying certain players had made "business decisions" in a loss to the Carolina Panthers. But in the game against the Browns, Crosby watched from home to rest his ankle and Adams, nursing a hamstring issue, cheered from the sidelines.
Then a social media account linked to Pierce liked a Sports Illustrated post Monday night suggesting Adams, long the subject of countless trade rumors, might have already played his final game for the Raiders. The like was later removed
