For the Green Bay Packers, one trade window opened up while another trade window slammed shut on Wednesday.
Pro Bowl receiver DK Metcalf has requested a trade from the Seattle Seahawks, per Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Media, officially creating an ideal target as the Packers attempt to find a veteran pass-catcher for 2025. Meanwhile, edge rusher Maxx Crosby signed a record-breaking contract extension with the Las Vegas Raiders, per Adam Schefter of ESPN, eliminating the All-Pro as a trade target for 31 teams.
Crosby could have been a splash addition for Brian Gutekunst, who has repeatedly talked about his team's need to improve as a four-man pass-rushing unit in 2025.
