Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis on Saturday shared his definitive stance about all the trade rumors surrounding Maxx Crosby.

Crosby has been linked to the Detroit Lions ever since the NFC powerhouse lost star pass rusher Aidan Hutchinson to a gruesome leg injury .

Davis tried to quash all the Crosby trade talk once and for all. Davis sent an email to ESPN’s Adam Schefter refuting the idea that the Raiders would entertain any kind of trade offer for Crosby.

“We’re Not Trading Maxx Crosby,” Davis wrote in his email. “Before Or After The Trade Deadline!!!”

Sports team owners and executives have reneged on their word before. However, Davis may very well hold firm on his stance given Crosby’s inherent value to the team.

Crosby has been the heart and soul of the Raiders’ organization over the last few years. The three-time Pro Bowler has repeatedly expressed his commitment to the franchise both on and off the field. But that hasn’t spared Crosby from having to respond to speculation about him looking for a way out of Las Vegas.

Through six games with the Raiders this season, Crosby has 6.5 sacks and 23 combined tackles. He also has 10 tackles for a loss, which is tied with Houston Texans defensive end Will Anderson Jr. for the most in the NFL.
