NFL franchise Las Vegas Raiders are clicking into gear as they announced the signing of veteran defensive end Chandler Jones. The news did lead to Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby sharing his excitement on a recent show. Both Jones and Crosby have developed a special friendship over the years. They seem full of excitement to play with each other on the same team. While Crosby is an up-and-coming star, Jones has been one of the top defensive players in a decade. While speaking on The Rich Eisen Show, Crosby states, “I was elated when I found out about the news. You know Chandler is like a big brother to me. It’s kinda crazy, um, I had no idea that any of this was in the works. And once I found out, I freaking lost my mind because Chandler is you know one of those guys that I can call and talk to about football and anything.” The visible excitement from Crosby after he became aware of the trade seems like a great indicator of how much regard [https://www.espn.in/nfl/story/_/id/33529758/friendship-maxx-crosby-big-reason-why-chandler-jones-chose-las-vegas-raiders] he holds for Jones and his NFL career. He also states that he did reach out to Jones and was full of excitement for the upcoming season. The Raiders franchise has made strides recently in a highly competitive AFC West Division. It has seen a huge shake-up in terms of QB talent in the past few weeks. MAXX CROSBY’S REACTION IS AN OMEN FOR EXCITING TIMES IN LAS VEGAS While Jones is a significant addition to the Raiders franchise, they have also added [https://www.espn.in/nfl/story/_/id/33529955/green-bay-packers-trading-davante-adams-las-vegas-raiders] an elite offensive weapon in new wide receiver Davante Adams from the Green Bay Packers [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/green-bay-packers/]. Adams was amazing in 2021 and will be having a reunion with fellow Fresno State QB Derek Carr. It seems the Raiders did elevate their roster with the recent trades for both Chandler Jones and Davante Adams. Future Ahead of Hitting Free Agency [https://www.essentiallysports.com/nfl-news-not-about-money-at-all-chandler-jones-clears-the-air-about-his-nfl-future-ahead-of-hitting-free-agency/] The recruitment of Jones brings his elite tackling ability while leading the league with 107.5 career sacks since 2012. He will be playing in the dangerous AFC West Division and hoping to make an impact for the Raiders. The franchise will be hoping for a budding partnership between Jones and Crosby that will propel them to great things.

<p style="text-align: center">The Raiders franchise was originally based in Oakland, California and they played their first season as charter members of the AFL in 1960. During the 19700 AFL-NFL merger, the Raiders moved to into the NFL. Moreover, from the 1982 season onwards all the way through the 1994 season, the club had moved out of Oakland and relocated to Los Angeles.</p>

<p style="text-align: center">However, this would prove to be yet another stop as the NFL team owners decided in March 2017 to approve the Raiders’ application to relocate to Las Vegas. What’s more, this move came in through nearly unanimous approval. On January 22, 2020, the Raiders official picked up the mantle of the Las Vegas Raiders.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Although the initial years were fraught with hardships, the entry of Al Davis and his continued attempts at improvement saw things turn around in 1967. The team went on the win it’s first and only AFL championship, however; they were soundly dispatched by the Green Bay Packers at Super Bowl II. The franchise currently clocks in with 15 division titles, 4 AFC championships, 1 AFL championship (1967), and 3 Super Bowl Chips: XI, XV, XVII in 1976, 1980, and 1983 respectively.</p>
