Baltimore Ravens Spill the Shocking Truth: Why They Suddenly Bailed on Maxx Crosby Trade

Maxx Crosby won’t be playing in Baltimore.

The Raiders had traded Maxx Crosby to the Ravens in exchange for first-round picks in 2026 and 2027. That deal has now been reversed.

In a shocking development, the Las Vegas Raiders announced Tuesday that the “Baltimore Ravens have backed out of our trade agreement for Maxx Crosby. We will have no further comment at the time.”

Dianna Russini of The Athletic reported Crosby did not pass his physical on Tuesday. That means the Ravens will receive their draft picks back, as the trade no longer goes through.

The news quickly sent shockwaves across the NFL. Crosby had widely been expected to land in Baltimore once the new league year officially began on Wednesday.

The sudden twist could reopen the door for other teams around the league that had previously been linked to Crosby, including the Cowboys.

This is unfortunate news for Maxx Crosby, as he was reportedly giddy to play for a winning franchise for the first time in his career.
