The Baltimore Ravens and Las Vegas Raiders will not be finalizing the trade involving superstar edge rusher Maxx Crosby.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Crosby failed his physical, so Baltimore backed out of the deal.
"Welp: It’s not just players that can change their minds. Teams can, too. But clearly there is a reason, and Maxx Crosby still had to take and pass a physical coming off a significant knee injury," Schefter said.
Failing to trade for Crosby due to a failed physical is a tough blow for the Ravens, but it sounds like the team could already have a backup plan in mind.
An NFL general manager texted insider Jordan Schultz that he believes Baltimore will now sign Trey Hendrickson to address their pass rush.
"Text from a GM: “Baltimore is gonna sign Trey Hendrickson. Watch," Schultz said on X.
Hendrickson's free agency market hasn't been great, but the veteran is expected to make a decision on where he will sign on Wednesday.
Though core muscle surgery limited Hendrickson to just eight games and four sacks in 2025, he's one of the most dominant and productive pass rushers in the sport when healthy, and would be a fantastic fit on the Ravens' defense.
Hendrickson still has the ability to be a No. 1 pass rusher, and joining Baltimore would give him the opportunity to have a major bounce-back in 2026.
As for the Ravens, they need pass rush help more than ever, and luckily for them, a former All-Pro who had 17.5 sacks in his last fully healthy season is there for the taking.
