Cowboys' rumored superstar trade target drops cryptic note after OT loss
The Week 9 slate of games on Sunday is nearly in the books, and the NFL trade deadline is looming. While the Dallas Cowboys had the day off ahead of a Monday Night Football meeting with the Arizona Cardinals in less than 24 hours, there was plenty to pay attention to.
Week 9 was a crucial point for several teams ahead of this week's deadline, with the result potentially determining whether they would be buyers or sellers.
Dallas has been linked to some of the top pass rushers and players on the defensive side of the ball, and reports were flying on Sunday morning that the team is expected to be "aggressive" with moves to improve the roster.
One player that the team was previously linked to and reportedly inquired about trading for is superstar Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby.
Crosby and the Raiders suffered a heartbreaking overtime loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, which led to the star pass rusher dropping a cryptic message on social media that some viewed as a potential farewell as Vegas fell to 2-6 on the year.

"Raider Nation I Love Yall With Everything In My Heart & Soul," Crosby posted on X. "Yall Deserve Better. Stay As One, It Will Change."
The comments and reposts were immediately full of Cowboys fans sharing tongue-in-cheek comments welcoming Crosby to Dallas.
"Start looking at homes in Dallas, big bro," one user wrote. Another wrote, "This is your goodbye. Welcome to Dallas!"
Even Raiders fans were in mourning, urging Crosby to do what's best for him and demand a trade. "You deserve better Maxx. You gotta demand a trade," a heartbroken fan added. "This organization will always be a sh*t show with Howdy Doody as an Owner. Get the hell outta Vegas as fast as you can & get you a ring."

If the Cowboys have an opportunity to land Crosby and the talks of earlier talks were real, Jerry Jones and company need to follow up and do what it takes to get a deal done for the 28-year-old star.
The NFL trade deadline is set for Tuesday, November 4, at 4:00 p.m. ET.

Tyler Warren's hair is just one awesome feature of multi-dimensional Colts rookie tight end
Tyler Warren does it all.
That includes pulling off shoulder-length blonde hair as an NFL tight end.
The Indianapolis Colts' rookie, taken No. 14 overall in the 2025 NFL Draft out of Penn State, is clearly special.
The hair just completes the picture.
There don't appear to be any real origin stories of the hair. Warren's early PSU pictures have him with shorter hair, so it was an in-college decision.
Once he started growing it, Warren clearly decided not to stop.
It just added to the vibe of one of the best players in the country. Penn State threw to him a ton, of course. But they also let him run the ball and even throw the ball.
The Colts had to have been thrilled when Warren made it to No. 14 in the first round. He wasn't even the first tight end chosen. The Chicago Bears took Colston Loveland at No. 10, a move that hasn't aged well so far.
Warren looks like he can be the centerpiece of Indy's passing attack for years and years to come. He's been a favorite target of Daniel Jones, and yes, Warren already has a rushing TD this season, too.
It wouldn't be shocking at all to see a few youngsters in the Indianapolis area begin growing out their hair, too. If Tyler can do it, why not them?
It's hard to pull it off the way Warren has, though. He's so impressive on the field that the flowing hair just adds to the picture. And so far, it's quite the exquisite picture.
