Maxx Crosby’s new song sparks 49ers trade speculation

Maxx Crosby dropped a snippet of his new song this week, and Niners fans believe some of the lyrics indicate good news is on the horizon for San Francisco’s defense.

In the Raiders pass rusher’s latest tune — which he shared a part of on his Instagram Stories — he rapped about buying a house in Las Vegas, before he dropped a line about Northern California that has sparked trade speculation among 49ers faithful.

“What can I say?” Crosby sang on the track. “The boy get paid, brand new crib in the Vey. We done touched down in the Bay, shooters like Steph and Klay.”

Crosby’s been making music since high school, calling it “a hobby of mine” during an interview last year, and as a former Oakland Raider, bars about the Bay Area and Golden State Warriors legends would normally be nothing noteworthy.

But Crosby’s been at the center of trade rumors since the end of the NFL season, when the Raiders shut him down with a knee injury that he clearly felt he could play on.

In fact, NFL insider Jay Glazer reported out at Super Bowl week earlier this month that he felt Crosby’s time with the Raiders was over.

So, following the release of the song, Niners sleuths have wondered if Crosby might be sending up a signal for Kyle Shanahan to come trade for him.

San Francisco is hardly the only fanbase that’s trying to read the Crosby tea leaves, however.

After Crosby linked up with Caleb Williams on the five-time Pro Bowler’s “The Rush” podcast this week, Bears fans have dissected Crosby’s words and wondered if they mean Ben Johnson might make a move for his Chicago defense.

Whatever team wants Crosby is going to have give up a lot to eventually get him — Adam Schefter reported Wednesday the Raiders are looking for “at least two 1st-round picks and a premium player” for their sack artist.
