The Chicago Bears were one of the teams often and heavily linked to Maxx Crosby when the Las Vegas Raiders first made him available on the NFL trade market. However, the Raiders agreed to trade the five-time Pro Bowl pass rusher to the Baltimore Ravens for two first round picks.
Last night, though, it was reported that Baltimore backed out of the trade after failing Crosby on his physical. This news sent shockwaves through the NFL and reignited speculation that Chicago could look into trading for him again.
However, it does not sound like that will be the case. In fact, it now appears that Crosby will not be going anywhere.
The Chicago Bears likely not going to be able to trade for Maxx Crosby
While other NFL teams got back on the phone to inquire about the possibility of trading for Crosby, it does not sound like it will be possible now.
Despite the Ravens’ assessment of his knee rehab, the Raiders are not coming down off of their asking price of two first round picks. What is more, after talking with their star pass rusher, it appears that the two sides are ready to move forward together:
Maxx Crosby was in the @Raiders building at 6 am this morning to resume rehab, and the team brass reached out to him immediately after the trade died yesterday. General feeling—Crosby’s a Raider, let’s move forward.
Trade calls came. More will come. But that’s where things are.

Undoubtedly, the Bears are going to be one of the teams that already have and will continue to call the Raiders. However, if Las Vegas will not lower their asking price, Chicago is undoubtedly out on Crosby.
