Silver Minings: Maxx Crosby for Comeback Player of the Year?

When it comes to Las Vegas Raiders’ star defensive end Maxx Crosby and NFL awards, the focus is usually on the NFL Defensive Player of the Year Award.

But in the 2025 season, we need to come an eye on another award — the NFL Comeback Player of the Year.

Remember, Crosby missed his first five games of his six-season career in 2024 and finished the season on the injured reserve with leg issues.

Crosby is entering his seventh NFL season fully healthy and ready to go and he should be poised for his typical monster season.

According to our friends at FanDuel Sportsbook, Crosby is a 25-1 bet to win the Comeback Player of the Year. It’s currently the tied for the seventh lowest (best) odds in the NFL. Crosby is priced at 15-1 (sixth lowest) tow in his first Defensive Player of the Year award

If betting is your thing, backing Crosby is never a bad idea.
