On Friday night, Crosby shared a cryptic post on social media that sparked excitement among fans hoping he might one day wear a Lions jersey. The post read, “Undisputed. They Will Wish They Treated You Better When Times Were Tough. The Fake Always Expose Themselves. …”
Despite acquiring Za’Darius Smith at the trade deadline, Lions fans are eager for Crosby to request a trade from the Raiders.
The Raiders endured another disappointing season, missing the playoffs yet again. Reports suggest the team will hire Pete Carroll as their next head coach following Antonio Pierce’s dismissal. They finished the 2024 season with a 4-13 record.
Detroit’s season ended unexpectedly against the Washington Commanders despite being the top overall seed. Injuries to Aidan Hutchinson and Marcus Davenport weakened the defense, allowing rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels to exploit the Lions’ secondary.
General manager Brad Holmes faces a key decision in finding a defensive end to play opposite Hutchinson in 2025. Options include the draft, free agency, or retaining Smith for another year.
Crosby has frequently expressed that if he left Las Vegas, the Lions are a team he’d enjoy playing for. Rumors, however, link Crosby to a potential move to the Green Bay Packers.
