Where will Maxx Crosby play in 2026?
💡 What the odds say
Most likely: New York Jets at about a 0% chance.
Despite a flurry of trade rumors involving the 49ers, Seahawks, and Eagles, the market has collapsed to near-zero odds for all teams, reflecting Maxx Crosby's emphatic denial of a trade (A to Z Sports, Jul 15) and the Raiders' plan to manage his workload in camp (Yahoo Sports, Jul 24), making a 2026 departure seem highly unlikely.
📊 Base rate: Star defensive ends under long-term contracts are traded mid-contract in fewer than 10% of cases, based on NFL trades since 2010, suggesting the current near-zero odds are consistent with historical norms.
What's driving it
- • Crosby's own statement 'shut down any other belief' of a trade (A to Z Sports, Jul 15) directly suppressed speculation and collapsed odds for all suitors.
- • The Raiders' plan for a lighter workload early in camp (Yahoo Sports, Jul 24) signals they are managing his health for the season, not preparing to move him.
- • Multiple speculative trade proposals (49ers, Seahawks, Eagles) from July 4–21 (49ers Webzone, 12th Man Rising, Yahoo Sports) failed to gain traction, as no credible reports of actual negotiations emerged.
Why the front-runners lead
- • Crosby's public denial (A to Z Sports, Jul 15) is the strongest signal a player can give that he expects to stay, making a trade in 2026 extremely unlikely barring a reversal.
- • The Raiders' decision to ease his workload (Yahoo Sports, Jul 24) indicates they are investing in his long-term health with the team, not showcasing him for a trade.
- • No team has emerged as a serious bidder with a concrete offer, as all recent reports are speculative trade proposals from fan sites, not insider news.
Why it's still open
- • If Crosby's performance declines or he requests a trade later in the season, teams like the Seahawks (12th Man Rising, Jul 12) or 49ers (49ers Webzone, Jul 4) could revive interest with a strong offer.
- • A surprise mid-season collapse by the Raiders could prompt a rebuild, making Crosby a valuable trade asset for draft capital, as suggested by the Eagles proposal (Yahoo Sports, Jun 21).
- • The market's near-zero odds leave no room for a front-runner to emerge; any team could leap to the top with a single credible report of trade talks.
What to watch
- • Raiders training camp reports in late July/early August 2026: if Crosby is limited or absent, trade speculation could resurge; if he participates fully, odds of him staying will solidify.
- • NFL trade deadline (early November 2026): a surprise trade request or a Raiders losing streak could trigger a flurry of offers, pushing odds for a contender like the Eagles or 49ers upward.
- • End of 2026 season: if Crosby becomes a free agent or the Raiders fail to extend him, odds for all teams will reset and become competitive.

3M Open Winner
Jackson Koivun commands an unusually high 54% probability for a PGA Tour event, but the 1-point dip in the last 24 hours hints at shifting money, and recent headlines focus entirely on the British Open victory by Ryan Fox (AP News, Jul 24), offering no clear catalyst for that movement or for Koivun's lead itself.

Ben Kohles vs The Field
Despite Ben Kohles holding a two-shot lead after the first round of the 3M Open, the field is priced at 92% because Kohles has a history of late-round collapses (most recently hitting into water on 18 to lose on Jul 17) and the tournament still has 54 holes with many top players like Scottie Scheffler only three back (Field Level Media, Jul 24). The single biggest recent shift is the market's skepticism of Kohles' lead, as his odds remain low despite the first-round advantage.
