Las Vegas Raiders pass rusher Maxx Crosby is adding an assistant general manager title in 2025.
Eastern Michigan University announced Monday that Crosby has been named assistant GM for the football team, which entails evaluating high school and transfer portal prospects and helping manage the team's NIL/revenue share budget. Crosby will also serve as a special assistant to the athletic director on fundraising, alumni relations and student-athlete support.
A fourth-round pick by the Raiders out of EMU in 2019, Crosby developed into one of the fiercest pass rushers in the NFL. This offseason, he inked a three-year, $106.5 million extension. The $35.5 million-per-year new-money average briefly made Crosby the highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL.
In addition to Crosby taking on the AGM title in Ypsilanti, the EMU football program announced that it plans to rename the weakside defensive end position from "LEO" to "MAXX" and the team's top edge pass rusher will now wear jersey No. 92 -- Crosby's college number.
