Ravens Withdraw From Crosby Trade

The Baltimore Ravens withdrew from a reported trade agreement to acquire defensive end Maxx Crosby from the Las Vegas Raiders on Wednesday, March 11, 2026, according to an announcement from the Raiders. This decision means the Ravens will retain their 2026 and 2027 first-round draft picks, which were reportedly part of the initial trade package.

Ravens General Manager Eric DeCosta stated the team could not complete the acquisition process, describing it as a "tough call." While the specific reason for the withdrawal was not officially disclosed by either team, NFL Network reported the trade was canceled due to a medical reason. Crosby, 28, played through a knee injury during part of the previous season.

The trade was not officially finalized, as NFL transactions become official at the start of the league year. Crosby's agent, C.J. Laboy, issued a statement asserting Crosby's recovery from injury is on track and ahead of schedule, with an expected return during the offseason program.
