Maxx Crosby has departed Baltimore with his feet up, and while there's some embarrassment about a failed physical, the standout pass rusher will have options. In a statement released moments ago, Crosby's agent says the Raiders star is ahead of schedule in his knee recovery after the Ravens backed out of a blockbuster trade following a failed physical.
The Ravens now have the No. 14 overall pick, a 2027 first-round pick back, and plenty of salary cap space after a failed Maxx Crosby physical canceled their trade with the Las Vegas Raiders. Crosby was in Baltimore on Tuesday, and the move would have sent two first-round picks (in 2026 and 2027) to the Raiders. Crosby recently had knee surgery in Las Vegas prior to the season, and he needed to pass a physical before the deal could be officially confirmed.
Maxx continues to be on track in his recovery and if anything is ahead of schedule according to his surgeon Dr Neal El Attrache. Maxx remains on track to return during the offseason program & will undoubtedly return as the dominant game wrecker he has been these past 7 seasons.

Crosby, a 2019 fourth-round pick by the Raiders, has developed into one of the best pass rushers in the league. In Crosby's seven seasons with the Silver & Black, the five-time Pro Bowler has recorded 69.5 sacks, 133 tackles for loss, 164 QB hits, and one interception in 110 career games.
