Contract Details: Raiders Re-Sign Star To A Three-Year, $106.5 Million Extension That Includes $91.5 Million Guaranteed

Maxx Crosby is sticking around with the Silver and Black.

The Las Vegas Raiders announced on Wednesday that they’ve signed the star defensive end to a multi-year contract extension. It’s a deal that keeps Crosby in the desert, ending what could’ve developed into trade speculation if the Raiders failed to start winning.

After filling up their coaching staff, the team is now fixing up their roster by taking care of its biggest star.

A fourth-round pick by the Raiders in the 2019 NFL draft, Crosby has continued to impress as one of the league’s best defenders. He’s made the Pro Bowl four times and totaled at least 10 sacks in three of his first six seasons.

Maxx Crosby contract details.

Crosby inked the three-year, $106.5 million extension that includes $91.5 million guaranteed.

A person close to the situation confirmed the details of Crosby’s contract to USA TODAY Sports’ Tyler Dragon. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity given the sensitivity of the matter.

That contract makes Crosby the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history.

Despite years of losing, the man known as “Mad Maxx” decided against requesting a trade over the years.

The Raiders hired a new regime this offseason, bringing Pete Carroll in as head coach and John Spytek in as general manager. Part-owner Tom Brady has been front and center throughout it all, especially playing a key role in the team’s recruitment of Matthew Stafford, who ultimately opted to stay with the Los Angeles Rams.

Corsby has always been adamant about his desire to win, admitting that he wasn’t sure if that would ever be possible with the Raiders.

“I’ve had doubts in the past,” Crosby said via ProFootballTalk. “I feel like this past year was the hardest part of my career. Battling through injury the whole year, struggling, losing 10 games in a row. Up here, it makes you start questioning a lot of things.”

He went on to say that the trio of Carroll, Spytek and Brady have him as “the most optimistic I’ve been” since joining the franchise.

Now he has $106.5 million more reasons for that optimism, especially after resetting the market for his fellow defensive stars.
